Default LS1 noob

Unfortunately I had my 71 RS Z28 stolen from me in December, then it was stripped and consequently totaled by my insurance company. I recently joined up on here looking for a new ride, and I found a real nice 98 SS for sale another member. Well I got the check from the insurance company (finally) and while this doesn't replace the 71 it does help to feel a little better:

I got plenty left over for the next 2nd gen build, and a little stashed away where the wifey can't see it. For now this one has just some bolt on stuff but I am steadily digging for deals on parts to make her go a little faster and look a little better.

Welcome, sorry to hear about your loss. Car thieves should have to face the death penalty if caught. Nice new car though! Yeah always keep a little extra stashed away for play money.

Yes, only when I bought it it didn't have the original motor and I built an all forged stroker motor with dart heads and lots of go fast goodies...
