If it originally came with a Gen III, and it rolls with FI, it's in. The rest can find another list. This board stands for Gen III motors. Any moron can run a go-cart with a GEN III motor. Lets make it a challenge by making this boosted list limited to an original Gen III optioned car. What can YOU do with these limitations.

I'm sorry but I think this whole thread is funny. 
This all started because of our 96 4th gen F-body with an LS1 motor. What if we lied and said it was a wrecked 98 and we just put 93-97 parts on it. 
Or what if we did the conversion and said it was a 98. Where would it fall then? It's the same damn car just a few differently shaped body pieces. 
Do what you want and let us know. Although being #1 on the boosted list isn't our goal. Being the fastest LSx is.

WORD................... Go for it.... I believe any car what ever it is, if it has a LS1 we all learn from it and it makes the sport better for all of us.

Again... in my mind, this is cars that came with an LS1 or later engine.
Again... (to my understanding), these are vehicles like the 1998 and later Camaro/Trans Am or 1997 and later Corvette. This included strokers, borers, etc. Nitrous is a different power adder, and if a boosted car sports nitrous, it is ranked Boosted (though Nitrous+Boosted time is posted).
This is the little man's Boosted List.
So, Pro-Stock, Funny Car, Railers, etc are not included. It MUST be titled/tagged/insured and streetable.
If you want a list for all-out race cars, someone is free to start another list.
I created this list to encourage LS1 vehicles to share and compete their FI experience. Putting a shop car on the list was the last stretch, for me.
I said I am willing to shift our focus yet again if consensus seemed to be that cars that did not come with LS1 engines should be included. If it goes too far out, the list will lose it's identity as a late model LS1 Camaro/Trans Am/Corvette/Truck/GTO (later LS1 vehicle) advocate for Forced Induction. The intent of the list is diluted if all-out race cars are placed on the list.
What I CAN see is if there is consensus pre-97/98 vehicles with LS1 engines should be allowed.
PS: If you don't even OWN an FI vehicle, I don't see what one's interest would be in this list except to create confusion. It HAS been noted that many who don't even drive an FI vehicle, or have not expressed such an interest are stirring this pot.
