Default Bout time.

Every LSx guy I know is on LS1tech somewhere, so I figured it was about time to make an account. More classifieds... yay. I can hear my checking account crying in the distance.

Anyway, I live in the UK, but am doing my dirt in the middle east for the time being. I get back to the UK this fall, and will be packing my C6 up and shipping it back off to the states. I don't have a clue where the job is sending me yet, but I'm hoping it's somewhere with lenient emissions testing.

The car currently runs a 234/240 cam through 1 7/8"s with a catless X and oudmouth, so passing a sniffer is a little far fetched. I'm kind of hoping I end up in Florida, or Texas. I hear there's a lot of quick street cars in the lone star state.

Anyway, I'll post a pic in awhile. Have to get back to work for a few minutes. Good to finally be here...

Little update:

Just scored a set of Livernois stage 2 heads (with dual springs, Ferrea valves, and Harland Sharp 1.8's), and a ported, C6-firewall modded Fast 92, plus some Fast 46lb injectors.

Coupled with the current cam mentioned above, it should put the car somewhere up into the 500rwhp/rwtq range. I have some ported stockers on the car now, but this new setup will only end up costing a couple hundred bucks after recouping the funds from the heads and Fast90 I have now - I got that good of a deal on the new stuff.

I'll probably make a thread about it when I get around to the install. That is still some weeks out, though.

99, thanks- and same to you, man. Navy Blue Metallic, 6 Speed, SS... the best possible 4th gen combo made, in my personal opinion. Excellent car.

And Sparky, you omnipresent bastard... you keep your yap shut, LOL! Only two people from the "other" forum know about this, and they are sworn to secrecy.

My car is, and will be "cam-only".
