I shot the video earlier tonight with the DV cam and transferred it over IM to Chris who posted it on his website.. I don't have a way to post videos online. I didn't know he posted it already.lol.. haha..

I have been outside in my garage with the other Chris (carb'd coupe). We have been getting our asses kicked by an A/C compressor line on my dad's LT1 Camaro Z28 ...lol.. what a royal PITA. .. I'd rather do an LS1 cam swap or headers on a C5 then that mess with an A/C line on an LT1 F-Body.

Thanks for the comments.. I like it a lot. NEEDS tuning though. Yeah it sounds even nastier in person...haha.. You get some funky looks from people in traffic... (corvette sounding like that??? )

Steve
