OOPS, looks like he didn't listen to anyone. I checked his latest threads. He ended up getting the supercharged trans am and is already trying to sell it in the classifieds. He says he got screwed and wants his LS1 back. Sucks man, sorry to hear but you were warned.

I got a guy thats pretty well known in sc for working on LT1s to come pick the car up sunday and take it to his shop, he said hes got a 355 he could put in it. should i just rebuild the old one or go with the 355 and stick the Vortech on it?

Here is the for sale thread...

I feel sorry for you jheath5193 but I guess you deserve it for being "Dumb Dumb" I hope this thread helps other guys and like mom always said "Learn from other people's mistakes, you don't have time to make all of them yourself"

This guy 5'5 Big Bob is odd to say the least. He only has 23 posts in sections that count, but when you search for posts by him you get 250 results because all of his posts are in the classifieds sections where they aren't counted. Yet with all these tons of posts in the classifieds, he only has 1 feedback rating which means he hasn't sold a whole lot.

Definitely a shyster to say the least.
