Default New guy looking for some LS1 power

Hello,

I am joining this site to learn all I can on the LS1 platform and specifically am looking for a 97-02 Camaro Z28 6 speed with the sports package and the LS1 motor. I am coming from a mazdaspeed so coming from a turbocharged car to N/A should be nice and have less issues. I love cars and have since I was around 5 and cannot one to get my hands on one of these!

Thanks
Tim

FYI 98-02 Fbodies got the LS1, 97 is an LT1. The Corvette however did get the LS1 in 97 with the new body style.
Also what is the "sport package" you are talking about?
You will thoroughly enjoy the endless torque at every RPM these things have, and how easy/cheap they are to mod and easy to make power with.
