Crappy 3rd gen

Hey people whats going on? Names Randy I come from FL where street racing is worse than killing someone. But anyways I have been thinking about switching to an LS1 and get rid of the junk. So I thought I could do a little bit more reading on what ls1s are all about. I drive a 92 thirdgen and its pretty damn loud and thats about it F BODIES KICK ***

Just put an LS1 in your thirdgen and have the best of both worlds. I should have took my own advice, heres my old thirdgen.

That's what I did too, 3rdGen has daily driver duty, 4thGen is for the weekends. Insurance only went up $25 for 6mos after dropping comp & collision on the 3rdGen.

That's definately a nice lookin 3rd gen you have there. My Dad bought a 91 RS brand new and still has it. The little 305 has 150k on it and it's still kickin. Although the 305 TBI isn't the fastest thing out there and doesn't even compare to the power of my LT1, it is still fun to drive. I agree with everyone else too. I would keep it and drop an LT1 or LS1 mated to a T56 and that would be a sweet ride. I think the 91-92 3rd gens are one of the best looking Fbodies. I have a soft spot for them. Good luck with whatever you do though.
