HAHA, you are correct! I'm sure there are parts from alot of members here in my car. I was like a squirrel gathering nuts when it came to LS1 parts about a year ago.

I'd estimate the car weighs about 3200 lbs empty. I'll get it on a scale when I visit the track though.

There is TONS of room in this engine bay. Changing sparkplugs is definitely something you could do blindfolded (unless the headers are hot )
