Default New to the LS1 world

Just bought a 02 SS out of Texas. Never had a LS1 powered car, yet alone a fuel injected motor. Always had first gen F-bodies. Trying to sell 10 sec '69 to help pay for the new SS. Love the site and will be here almost every day trying to learn as much as possible. Later.

haven't had car long, but was told and have a copy of a dyno print showing 420 RWHP and 385 ft/lbs. I suppose high 11's or low 12's. Hopefully going to track soon to find out.

Thanks, the SS is silver w/ tinted windows and 17 vette wheels. PRC 2.5 heads, TSP custom ground cam, hurst shifter, drilled/sloted binders, pace LT, hooker y, corsa 3" w/ flow, custom tune, and a few basic bolt ons. San Antonio, drove 1500 miles round trip in two days to get it. Worth the drive.

I would love too but the pics are too large, I searched FAQ's for tips on how to shrink pics, but I could not find anything. Any advice?

Welcome to the world of underrated Hp numbers and 500NA horsepower (modded). Thanks to personal events, I'm afraid my own LS1 dreams have been shelved indefinitely....Oh well.
