Default New guy from Louisiana

Hello to all on the forum. I'm a complete newbie to LS engines. I have lurked here for a while and decided that I would sign in. I've been a Gen 1 SBC guy since I was a teen(long time ago). I decided for my next hot rod project I would try something new.

I picked up a 5.7 LS1 Corvette engine from another rodder's project. It's been converted to cable throttle body and came with a harness and ECM. It's supposed to be a new engine that has only been test fired. We'll see how that works out.

I may be asking some questions. The books I have don't always tell everything.

Mike

Yep, I am in La. Most folks know where Natchez is, but never heard of Vidalia! They usually want to know if that's where the onions come from.

Exactly... I only dated girls from Natchez....that way we could park on the mat fields and watch the submarine races!
