Newbie, hope to learn from the experienced

Hey fellows, newbie to the forum, don't know anyone form here except one member, have some questions that you all might be able to point me in the right direction, I drive a 99 GMC that currently had 4.8 to 6.0 swap, trans rebuilt with TCI cluthces , band and seals, Trans-go shift kit, 3.73 lsd factory carrier, and Nelson Perfomance custom tuned Pcm, run good for stock motor truck, but plan to make it a little faster, main focus is on my 78 malibu project, working on a 496 BBC planning to put down 650-750 hp on motor, and an extra 250 shot of nitrous, maybe 10 in the 1/4 hopefully. I work in tha automotive industry, fix cars and trucks for a living, and bolt on mods when needed, I have a boss that's a gear-head and that I get to do all his mods. Next project is his 5.3 to 6.0 LQ9 conversion, should run fast, see in a couple of weeks, well hope to hear from anyone interested, and hope to be helpful as well.

your malibu should dip into the 9's with nitrous.

welcome nice ride looks good i have a 63 nova project putting a 408 and when i get the money put a procharger on it

Welcome to the site!!

welcome to the site bro!!! soundsw like a fun project, good luck on the out come, and hope ya achieve the numbers youre looking for

Welcome

welcome to the site! got any pics of that malibu?

Thanks for the welcome to the forum, I really appreciate the response from everyone that responded, I'm trying to build both my GMC and my malibu at the same time, but it doesnt take much to spend alot of money when starting up new projects, I built, finished and sold my last project, had 93 Z28, 355 forged internals, CC306 cam, all edelbrock, from heads up too, all adjustable suspension and eibach springs, customed tuned due to being speed density and all the bolt ons available, 6-speed built trans,and it only ran 13.0 109 all motor and 12.0 at 122 on 150 shot on e.t streets, I spent to much for so little at the end. If you look on my public profile you'll see one of the pics of my malibu, I would post more of the inside and out but I'm just starting to figure out how to post message and pics, so bear with me..
