Talk to John or Jason at Thunder, they did a LS1 swap into John's V6 firebird a while back and can probably give you some tips.

yeah i really dont like driving the free way anymore in my camaro, about 6 months ago i was driving back from school on 45 S on some fairly bald tires, the road had a small turn to the left, i was doin bout 60 and the back end came out, i saved it, and then it did it about 5 more times, eventually i was doin 40 in the right lane and they were stil lettin loose, scariest ride of my life, but most professional driving also, if i must say so.

"Horsepower is how fast you hit the tree...Torque is how far you take that tree with you... Or you just nail the **** out of it, and don't move an inch!
