There was an LS2 SS Coly rumored... I just cant get past the looks, I just dont care for them. bagged, shaved, and colormatched, they look nice. but I have no desire to bag a colorado... I have my eyes on a 87 Square body chevy truck, thats gonna get bagged with a 6L/4L80E/14BSF eventually... probably start that build this time next year...

muffler shop wont do it. im sure if you drive around all day, you might find someone who will.

Va Speed might do it...i don't know if they do exhaust work or not.
