Thank you for you'r advice! but there's nothing to worry out belive me , I dont look like a 16 years old teenager :p Most of the people thought that I'm 20-22 years old. I mean that I look older :p
controlling a 427 would not be that hard, but with a 400 shot.... It is a GOD DAMN RISK!!

Exactly my point. To the OP, have you driven a 4th gen powered LS 427? I'm not trying to bash or stir the pot. Some of us are just saying that caution should be exercised. Dont fool yourself into thinking that controlling a 427 would not be that hard cause that may be the last thing you think. That type of mentality is the inexperience that one of the guys mentioned on this thread. Going from a 5.7 to 7.0 aint no joke for a street car. It's a different animal. Dont get me wrong, it's a blast to drive on the street and it's fun. It's a good build.

Thanks all for the advice
No I didnt' got you wrong I understand what you try to say...
But My point is that I drive from a long time and I've experienced street racing.
I know its dangerous, I know it might kill... but that will not gonna happen with me only, it might happen with you If you drive a 427 f body...
Sometimes you can't depend on the age of the driver... And belive me, I'll only go for the full throttle if I was at a wide + emty road

Anybody else think it's pretty cool people are jockin' LS1s halfway around the world? This kid could have been spending his cash on MKIV parts.
PS.. @OP.. it doesn't matter how much you've drag raced or how many 1000 HP cars you've street raced, one part failure or one unexpected event could turn that car into a pretzel and you into a ghost.
