Default HEY! The LS7 Monte SS get some press coverage in CHP Magazine!

Check out the little blurb in the middle/bottom of pages 118-119 of the September '06 Chevy High Performance magazine! Here's a copy of the article below (sorry for the poor quality, but my scanner doesn't work with Windows XP so I just took a pic of the article) for your review.

That is waaay cool! It's nice to see they know where to look to find the real enthusiasts. If they come on out we should make it an LS1tech BBQ day so we can all try to be there to support you!

Congrats!!

I might be looking at this the wrong way but did you give them permission to put your car in the mag? From what I read, they found your car while surfing the web. So this means they sold mags by selling your hard work and never asked or informed you about it? I think I would be a little upset if they pulled that with me. But then again I build my cars for me and don’t show them or I would never get to have any fun on the street.

I Kinnda had that same feeling, athough I don't think it would bother me.

Congrats!! Its one thing to summit for a mag, but for them to find you means you truly have something special
