Default Uh oh, I got another LS1

Yes, yes I know it looks like a V6..haha

I'm ordering a Sunoco hood, gunmetal ZR1s with 17x11, and either SS spoiler or Mecham spoiler soon.


First mods were painted headlights, removed badges and side molding, and muffler removal.

Very nice looking cars you got there, man. You must like the sleeper look? That's cool if you do, cause not many people I hear about the sleeper look anymore.

Well, it's sleeper right now...but like I said in the first post...after the cowl hood, rims, and spoiler...I hope it doesn't have the sleeper look!

The t-tops are kind of a giveaway on the sleeper look anyhow though. I think it'd be cool to find a v-6 camaro with a blown motor and swap in an LS drivetrain. They'd never know what hit em.

Nice cars. You need to fix the rear bumper sag on the bird. It is real easy. Take the tail lights off and you will see that there are holes in the bumper cover. They take those plastic buttons, that get old and break off. I used a bolt and nut combo to eliminiate that problem.Good Luck

Nice That car will be wicked when you get the appearance where you want it. Gotta love Arctic White. A black Berger panel looks awesome on a white car, IMO. What size rear tires are you going with? Good find and good luck with the project.

An LS1 will never be considered a sleeper.

Yeah, I always try to keep my eye on the Southeast section forum. So I'll most likely show up... I haven't been to the track since May when I had my GTO, so I need to get some more racing in before the season ends.

I couldn't wait...I went ahead and ordered Pacesetter long tubes, Offroad y-pipe, and the shortest DynoMax bullet there is.

Edit: I sent you a friend request on Fquick...we should get together and have a photoshoot...your white WS6, my friends Firebird, and my Camaro...lots of white cars..hahaha
