Disregard my question i guess, cause the "manage watched topics" section in the user cp is okay i guess. Just wish it was easier to get to, and able to be organized. MOD, feel free to delete this thread, unless someone has something to add. Val

Can someone point me to a more in-depth way to view watched threads? Perhaps something similar to the old VBull screen with the ability to organize? I used to keep dozens of threads on the subscribed list, and now the only way i see to view them is a little tickler on the lower right of the forum home page. Thanks. Val

I posted about this same topic at this thread when we were still on vBulletin, and basically got a hell no response. However I'm very thankful that maybe a made some dent, as we are now (i believe) able to do this in the classifieds. I suggest that perhaps there may be a way to request that a mod unlock a thread for editing by the thread owner, i.e. sticky threads, write-ups, or build threads, and that perhaps it could be done on a case by case basis, and for a certain amount of time, i.e. 24 hrs. So, for example, for the seat swap thread, you could PM BRAAP or someone, and say, her i want to throw in a couple of new entries from car x, y and z, and they could unlock it for 24 hours. That way, next week when someone pisses you off so bad you want to leave the forum, you can no longer take your seat swap thread with you. Val

Microsoft/Brickfish is currently holding a contest, the winner of which will have his/her app idea created and distributed for free by Microsoft for their upcoming windowsphone7 series of phones (and some money and swag). My video submission: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zD7XQQnfNA Now before you ask, I didn't use my Z because: it's gutted it's stripped and primered i wanted to use a car that came stock with bluetooth onboard My app has climbed from the 1200's to currently being ranked number 45. With only a few days left, I need a lot of help to push it to the top spot. If you like it, please vote for me by visiting the Microsoft Dashboard Entry, and feel free to spread it around. You can vote every 24 hours, and any help will be appreciated. Thanks guys. Val (p.s. my birthday is this week... I'm just sayin... )

I guess you would have to back down to LT1 to stay in the 2k for engine/tranny range, but there's 1 or 2 98 camaros on CL around where i live for 3-3.5k

Keep in mind, I posted this in the gen III and IV forums, and although I'd like inputs from other SBC owners, LS1 is my main concern. Also, That thread started almost 10 years ago, and a lot of these parts have either gotten a lot cheaper due to mass production, or rarer with time. In addition, I'll be more specific (like in the thread you pointed to) and ask what is normally spent, or what you specifically spent on installing the engine only, not on any rebuilds that were necessary, or upgrades you opted to do. Thanks for your input Janaka - nice build thread, and exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. Val

I'm currently getting set up for an L28 w/turbo conversion, and have everything I need with the exception of turbo, piping, and fuel management. However I'm considering making the swap to SBC. I'm thinking I might sell all my l28 related stuff and see if I can find a good deal on a SBC, preferably LS1. So, assuming I located, say, a 98 camaro that's been rolled, or an LS1 with tranny and wiring for like 2 grand, what would the average cost be for everything else I would need for making this swap work? I'd like a bunch of answers, as I figure some guys will think of things that others didn't, and then I'll ask a mod to update first post with average figures, so this can be an easily searchable topic, or maybe a sticky. I guess this will also apply to the other sbc forums, so even if you don't have an LS1, please drop your two cents. Thanks Val

thanks

Would you be able by any chance to post up some pics of your install? I'm interested in particular about the mechanism that detects wheelover for the turn signal off. Val

That's hilarious.

Any pics? Curious as to where you put the rocker. (assuming you used a rocker for the turns)
