Default Any one got a maggie car around me? New Haven, CT

ever since late model speed developed their Fbody Maggie kit ive had a hard-on for one but ive never been in a maggied fbody/ vette/ GTO and would love to go for a ride in one just to see if its all its cracked up to be. if any one local (CT, RI, MA, NY) has one and they would be willing to take me for a ride, id love you long time. ive been in slowbras before so im not total newbie but that 1.1L+ displacement over the 4.6 must make it quite a kick in the pants. thanks guys

just as side note since every thread about maggies seems to start a **** storm, i dont want a procharger/ turbo. i had a paxton blower on my old LT1 so i know what that is like and ive dicked around with enough turbo cars to know i dont want that on this car.
this is a 100% street driven car that will see the track at most a few times a year. im not looking for dyno numbers and the car is only going to be legal to 11.5 so no point in building a 9 second capable car.

Soon, Very Soon, I've been getting that damn itch.

Also it really needs to be in the 50's and maybe low 60s consistantly. I gotta get wax on the nose before Bug season starts.

sounds like a badass ride man. all that fits reasonably well under my hood would be a 112 so ill probably stick with the stock displacement since not much to gain on 112 with big cubes.
