    Nice, something different. No problem with it being a Cavi unless its got a fart can and a body kit lol You went the right way, even if some people say waste of money.

    At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

            tuning is your friend. glad to see a cavi owner actually went the right way with the car instead of doing the usual mods you see on them.

                            Just be on the look out for the black and yellow cavi aka The UFO. He may try to run, and beat you, just ask Colton. 😄

                                I think I may have actually seen that car once or twice at my work...(Gateway Chevy)

                                    welcome! car looks nice, and yes, even though its "just" a cavi its done very nicely. No obnoxious wing... +1 from me.

                                    you do all the install and swapping yourself? where did ya learn how to do it?

                                      I love the GMSC!!!! The Quad 4 and the Twincam are overlooked by everyone. This spring im looking to get either a Quad 4 HO 5speed or a 2.4L 5 speed to put the GMSC on. Glad to see someone local besides me who knows what to do with these cars though i havn't done it yet LOL. I hope to see this car at an auto-x or street legal days next summer.

                                        I did everything myself beside the machine work. Disassembly, research, minor custom fab work, assembly, and installation all done with my own 2 hands. I learned mostly from doing research like any good noob should do. But for actually knowing how to put a motor together I dont ever actually having someone teach me, it just kinda came natural...but I do have some recent schooling just to make it look good on paper. lol

                                        Sheeran, yeah I too am glad to see there is someone local that actually appreciates this platform. But good luck finding parts for either one...like I am sure you read my motor is pretty much a "hybrid" cuz the only thing left from the actual 2.4L is the block, crank, head, and valves. Everything else besides the turbo stuff and the pistons/rods is from a Quad 4 HO, including the oil pump...and let me tell ya, that was a royal P.I.T.A. but well worth it!
