Talking about the one from January 2013? I think that's PhillyLS1 or LS1Philly (something like that), I'm almost positive I have seen the car on here as well, it's a real nice build

I liked the article alot.

Love the way your F-1A sounds even at idle.

Why did you build the 414 LQ9 (I've never seen another)?

Pictures do the radiator and intercooler pipes no justice. Very impressive in person.

It used to be a 408. Block needed some work and that's what we ended up with.

Yea. I noticed that while the Photog was doing his thing. I had two friends help pull the wheels and polish my turd wheels. We were under the gun to get the shoot done LOL

The guy who did the fabrication work went out of business and doesn't return my personal phone calls. It's a shame, he did great work.
