Default some new pics of our small group...

My buddies and I decided to roll over to the campus parking deck and take a few pictures the other night. These are just lightly photoshoped. I know I need to adjust the white balance and what not in a few, but we were kinda rushin to move the cars around and get into the best light. The sun sets pretty fast. lol. Let us know what you think...

nice cars! u should consider an LS1 swap if your going to do a motor swap though... prolly cost around the same as an LT1 swap. Just a thought.

actually an LS1 swap is about twice the cost. remember the LS1 and T56 are still going for about 4-5k for just a stock engine and trans. i got a complete car for less than half that. plus i'm making money back from selling pieces and parts from the car. then i'm using the money from selling parts to build up the motor.

so honestly it's a lot cheaper to do a LT1 swap. not to mention wiring and computer...i'd have to rip out the entire dash harness and rewire if i did a LS1 swap. yea i'd love to but, just don't have the time or money...one day though...i'm gonna do a LS1 swap into a 93-97 camaro.

thanks man! it means a lot coming from you. i'm still trying to work with the originals to make them look a little bit better...but it's tedious work haha.

btw...i was realllllllly thinking hard about your WS.6. If I sold everything I have I'd still have to take out a small loan...but damn I love your car.

If you want it we can work something out as long as you're in the ballpark. I think those Firehawk wheels would look killer on it too. Those have always been one of my fav wheels for F-Bodies.
