Hello, I finally bought a LS1 camaro. I have always been into the 60's and early 70's but wanted something to get in and enjoy all summer long. I have rebuilt LS1's as a tech and built plenty for friends but just excited to have the Camaro SS that has everything I wanted and didnt just settle.

Thanks and excited to be here,

Mike

The SS is a 2000 triple black convertible with a 6 speed, no snow. Muffler was deleted. Hurst Shifter. Lower air cleaner base cut and modified. Lowered 2". Bilstein shocks all the way around. I have to save some money this summer for some upgrades. I spent all my toy money on buying it so I have to resupply the toy fund. I plan on sub frame connectors, rear lower control arms, on car adj. panhard bar, strut tower braces and black z06 wheels with Riken Raptor tires. There are a few more goodies I plan on but we will see where the financials end up
