GMHTP is probably your best bet right now. Year One would be a catalog for parts. Buy magazines for the pictures and come here for the tech....

i dont see the point of magazines considering there not up to date. with this site you get all the up to the minute as it happens results and info, not 4 months from now. i got a GMHTP subscription as a christmas present last year, didnt see anything worthwhile to make me renew.

It really seems to me that the old school hot-rodder's are about the magazines and the new guys are about the internet. This is based fact that I can't find a single message board set up for discussing and building sbc's pre-PCM control, and this site just rocks for LS1, and general, technical information. Not too mention there are many more similar sites for new cars / trucks.

I like GM hightech because you can take them to work or on the road. You guys do have jobs right?

Yep... i'm at work right now Some of us get to sit online because our jobs are so boring there isn't anything better to do. I'd rather have a busy 9-5 M-F job instead of what i'm doing now.

GMHTP is what I was going to suggest. They usually have the best fbody and ls1/ls6 info.

I still like opening the mailbox and seeing the GMHTP in there every other month. Canadian Z is right about Camaro Performers as well.
