Default Converted from the Mustang World

Hey LS1Tech,
Just checking in, figured I should join probably the best car forum out there.
My Mustang ended up on its roof about a month ago, so I took that opportunity to upgrade from my 99 GT to an LS1.
Its Sunset Orange Metallic, automatic , and got a Magnaflow cat back. I just got beat by a Mach 1 with 3.55s and a Bassani Exhaust (he said he ran a 12.90 at Maple Grove) last night by about a half a car, so Im pretty motivated to get this thing moving even more than it already does.

Welcome to our site. Most everyone here is cool and willing to give advice if you need it. Good pick on the sunset orange it's a gorgeous color. Like to see some pics of the car if you have any.

Some sections of the website, like Introductions and Regional (i think) don't add to your post count.
