I'll take that over all of the Chevy roundy-round's anytime. That is a nice ride. Looks even better at Road America. Check this out

Is it my imagination,,or the sound of the wide open exhaust,,,or does it sound like that has a different firing order. It sounds more like a traditional chevy firing order!!Could be wrong,,but to me it does not sound like the traditional LS order!! A bitchen clip regardless!!

Seeing it is a GM motor in the C6-R GT2 car this year, I would think it is the standard Chevy firing order. They went from the 7.0-liter LS7.R to the 6.0-liter LS7.R in '09 and now it is a 5.5-liter GM V8.
