Looks good from what I can tell, images need to be resized... they are either way too small, or way to big....

Great, 7500 no problems except for needing a catch can, but that is unrelated to the modifications. I drive it everyday in the summer to work and back, about 70 miles RT.

What would you have done with a 98 LS1 w/38K on it? I did get $3500 for that engine. My initial thoughts were to SC or cam the LS1, but research demonstrated the 98 LS1 had weak bottom-end and not a good platform for future SC.
