Default Power Junkie from DFW

Hello folks, my name is Steve from the Dallas/ Ft. Worth area. I am getting ready to do a project starting in May. I picked up a 2000 LS1 from a Corvette to put in my 80 CJ5 Jeep.

So now it is time to start reading and ask some questions

Thanks, the old CJ has a 4 cyl in it now and the LS1 will give me about a 300% increase in HP. My hope it that at 65 mph it wont sound like it is ready to grenade on me.
