Hey everyone. Just got my first LS1 in an '04 GTO. Looks like a cool site.

(Anyone with LS1 edit near Gainesville? )

Congrats on the GTO. I went to U of F in 2000. Go Gators! I live in Brandon, just outside of Tampa. My Dad has a Red 04 GTO with a 2005 Hood. He drag races it in MO. I'll be up there for Gatornationals next year.
