Talking Lurking and Learning in PA

Hello to everyone!

Obviously from my join date you can tell I like to lurk and learn as you guys do your builds instead of running my mouth. I've been slowly upgrading my current ride for an LS swap down the road. Looking for a little more power and drivability. I hope to continue learning from the wealth of knowledge accumulated here.

Welcome to the forum-I'm the same way about lurking vs posting. I've got family about 30 minutes South of you in York, and Diablo Formula Racing in Leola put the LS1 in my Monte.

What kind of ride are you doing an LS1 swap on?

Yeah York is close by. We go down for several events during the year. The build is a '78 Zephyr Z7 coupe. It currently is Windsor powered and runs high 11's. But 4.10 gears and a loose converter make for not much fun driving.
