Too bad for you Pat, remember I got your addy,....?? hehe....on my way north right NOW.....going to kidnap that car, and hold for ransom, you can find it some day at the end of the track at Englishtown or maybe Capitol.....but that's ok, it will be treated kindly and tenderly, sorta like a kidnapped *****......


seriously nice job man, and I"m jealous quite frankly....NICE ....really NICE....good sounding too,...


Gee, maybe I can borrow yours and leave mine off for a transplant??

I need a cam now. Damn, it's hard to keep up with you guys. Anyone want to trade a nitrous kit for a Magnacharger.

Pat - I would be curoius to see what the advantages of a SD system on the dyno. Any plans to dyno it soon?

That's awesome, good job! I admire your abilities. That's a nice looking installation and it sounds great. I think I'll be installing an LS1 in my Nova first (priorities for a family car) before I get to the Vette. I'm looking for an engine now.
