Welcome...you won't look back! 98-00 came with an LS1 intake with doesn't flow as well as an LS6 (01-02) when future mods are a factor everyone will tell u this just thought i'd be the first. Now is a very good time to pick on up for a good price. I would advise you to get either a 99 or 00 as the PCM in 98 was different than 99-02 and the knock sensors were more sensitive as i have just learned. Good luck!

Welcome, you'll love the domestic scene and the power of a 5.7 liter V8.

I'm an ex importer myself and now I can't image how anyone would spend money on one.
