Ok. Just don't tell everybody.

Bone stock, five years of ownership, 33K miles, stored through Chicago winters, beat like a baby seal even when the wife is in the car bitching. I love the stock power to much to bother modding.

I had a 77 Camaro. That I built a mild small block for that was putting out near 275 in a true dual exhaust, with headers, mild cam, head and valve work.

This modern version ( 01 ) LS1 puts me bone stock in the low 13 all day long. That is good enough for me, so no need to mod.

Stock with the exception of a shifter handle, the stock one is just a little flimsy. But mine won't be stock forever, car is in sig 55,000 mi. Ive only owned it a few months.

What not to what? What mods not to do, the stockers wouldn't know then. lol

If you need just general maintenance upkeep look into that section:

General Maintenance & Repairs

Peace,
Craig.

P.S. - My daily driver T/A is only lid, Borla, and ZO6 cam. Drives just like stock, but alot more "pep." lol

Only "mod" is a Clifford security system added the day after I took delivery brand new.

Stock seems like a derogatory term- I prefer unmolested.

Still only has 7800 miles....

Hate to say she may be for sale soon
