If anyone wants a higher mileage LS1 car to mod, my '02 Z has 88k miles and it's a total virgin, other than an air lid. Make me an offer!

Nice car. I have a question. In the 4th picture of the engine bay, What is the second cable next to the one that goes to the actual blade? I have a 2002 Z-28 with the 6-speed and my car only has the one cable on it. Ive been wondering for awhile.

I can't see the pics at work...but i think your talking about the throttle cable, correct? If your car has traction control, it only has 1 cable. Cars without TC have 2

My question would be... obviously it was a garage queen, or whatever, so why would the other owner get rid of it now?

Well the story goes as follows car belonged to a local car collector who also had two very nice 1st gen camaros a 69 SS and yenko clone. This car was going to be for his son who I guess ended up not deserving it. Discipline I guess so it was sold

I remember about 10 years ago, having a heads/cam LS1 was a HUGE deal. You were basically a God in your region if you had that. Even a cam/header setup was super rare and thought to be wild.

Times have changed. Anything less than a 402ci iron block with a T88 and a TH400 + 4500 stall is now "mild"
