My 1986 442 Project
 

Hello everybody, My name is Akin but you guys can call me Kin. I have a 1986 442 thats been sitting since it was in an accident some years back due to me not having a space to really work on it. Any way I want to do an LY6 LSx engine swap along with other up grades to it.

Welcome! Good to see another g-body on here.

Welcome aboard.

Thanks guys

I think you have a pretty cool plan for your car. Have you had a chance to start rounding up parts or do anything on the car yet?

Welcome Kin, always liked those cars.:thumbsup:

I've been going around trying to gather all my parts. The parts that keep on alluding me is the complete LS1 rear brake set-up. I've found my front spindles and brakes from 98-02 2WD blazer truck. I'm gonna buy the brake conversion bracket for hooking up some C5/C6 brakes. I'm toying with the idea of buying another frame and trying to chop it up and fabricate it to hook up a C5 rearend suspension but that would be a big feet for somebody like me that never picked up a torch or welder!

Look up Tobin at Kore3 here. There is a link to his business on the left. He can set you up with all of the items you need for your brakes.

Nice to have a fellow cutty guy here.
