after 147k miles, i started it up after work one day and bent a rod. Got a good deal on an lq9 and threw it in. Still has the stock tune on it and went 11.88 with an ls1 intake so i'm happy with it so far! I've got a big cam and nitrous on the way though. I've got a group heading to the track Friday night you should come out!

I saw a black camaro SS with SOM checkered racing stripes today in Pensacola on 98 turning onto 72nd. It was clean and sounded great...really wanted to compliment your car but I got stopped by a red light. Not even sure if the owner posts on these forums, but just in case big props for a great looking car.
