Every once in a while, you'll be in second gear and gun it to about 5000 rpm and it will make you smile... Congrats!

Watch out for modding fever - it can be terminal (I am at the end stages of the disease).

Have fun!

After about 7 hours here they are, it finally stopped raining yesterday about 5pm.

I washed with dish soap, clayed the entire car and tried the mequires nxt polish.

I think it came out pretty good. Here are some pictures I just took today.

well just an update, was searching for this thread since someone else was inquiring on a 2001.

Funny after rereading this post, I said I was going to hold off on mods for a bit. Well its been a month and the list of mods so far is:

- Borla 2 tips stingers
- Blackwing
- CAGS
- Hood seal
- Hurst shifter

WTF happened to my waiting? I swear its this forum causing me to do things

BTW, pics are to the left since I see I never posted any

This is true, and lower LSA:
1997-1999 LS1 / Y-car .472/.479 ** duration 199-207 ** LSA 117
2000 LS1 / Y-car .500/.500 ** duration 198-209 ** LSA 115.5
2001-2004 LS1 / Y-car ** .467/.479 ** duration 196-207 ** LSA 116
2001 LS6 / Y-car ** .525/.525 ** duration 204-211 ** LSA 116
2002-2004 / LS6 Y-car ** .551/.555 ** duration 204-217 ** LSA 117.5
