I asked the same question yesterday. The only thing that I can really figure is that he started "advertising" when he listed prices and so the whole thread was deleted.

That sounds like it. Mr Hinson has been offered sponsorship opportunities at LS1Tech at least once. I'm sure that he could gain some business from this site but as of yet he hasn't shown interest (at least to me) to become a sponsor. We would welcome him here if he wanted to sponsor the site. I'm sure that he has lots of knowledge that he could share with our members.

He does have alot of knowledge that he "Could" share but won't. Like any other business men you don't give out secrets of the trade and I don't blame him one bit. They practically pioneered the LS1 - 240sx swap and though it would be nice to share some info, he would loose money by doing so. Thats why i'm doing the swap and spilling the beans so he won't have to Scooter, off topic but do you goto Bakers at all when the season was in? I live in Walled Lake and I miss all the action... -Alex

Other sponsors seem to get plenty of business while still contributing information to the forum.

Yes, I try to go to Bakers as much as possible. I think I only made it there a couple of times last year. I usually get there late, find a parking spot, and walk around for a little while. I don't stay that long. The first time I took the LS1 swap up there it drew quite a crowd. It made me happy and made all of the work worthwhile. Maybe I'll see you there this year. If you see my car, say Hi.

Yeah I'll definately be up there, I haven't been there but once all last year. Now that I can fit in with the crowd with a v8 I'll be happy to have my car parked there and not in the way back haha. I'l will definately stop by and say hi if I see you. Do you go out to Woodward or Telegraph at all? -Alex

Our post was deleted when we posted the pricing information as a non-sponsor. We will continue to post information here and at www.torquecentral.com, but we will have to leave out pricing information at the moderators request.

Feel free to call or email us with any questions or concerns.
