Default I just bought a 98' Z28

So I just got a what I believe was a sweet deal on 98' Z with headers,ory,hooker catback exhaust, whole intake side done for only $6400.00 and only 88,000 miles on the clock. So now I have 3 girls my wife my 97'SS which is red and 98'Z28 which is black I like to call them my twins. Let me know what ya'll think.

I'm hoping you realize the 98 isn't an LT1..

Good buy though.

98+= LS1's. They are getting into the LT1 price range though. Congrats!

Don't be mad. The LS1 is better than the LT1. Bone stock LS1's are generally low 13 second cars and some have even made high 12 second passes in the 1/4.

i hope you werent being sarcastic, because if you were this is the LT1 section

ETA: i looked up some of your older posts and you do KNOW that you have a LS1. so acting like a jerk in here to Counted Out is not called for because YOU posted in the wrong section!!!

Its not that serious guys, I don't think he was implying it was an LT or he thought it was other then some sarcasm.

He has an LT and an LS series car. He enjoys both and since his first seems to have been an LT he shared with those here he now has an LS as well for the fun of the usual "Oh you traitor!!" Comments.

On that note, Good deal but the devil will own your soul now!!! :p

He's being sarcastic..

He's got a 97SS. He's an LT1 guy, but just bought an LS1. So now I guess he's both, haha.

The '97's & '98's were a bitch, they have like 13 or 14 bolts on the Valve Covers, in '99 I believe is when they went to the center-bolt Valve Covers. The older style are a pain in the *** to get off..lol

If you end putting heads on that 98, make sure you get yourself some newer Valve Covers and the Coil Pack Brackets, you will need them to put it back together.
