Default I'm kinda new

some of you guys should have remembered me. I've been on alot F-Bodies board under the same name..I recently purchased a 2004 GTO LS-1, couldn't find a LS-2 in my price range. Trust me I searched. But I fibnally got back into a V-8 RWD. I was recently cruising in a 2002 Grand Prix GT, and reliezed that, what ever I put on this car, its not going to get much faster. So, my wife gave me the OK, just make sure the next car you buy, it has a back seat. Couple of days later, I had a GTO in the garage. This car has alot more room then my Grand Prix did..Ok, heres the history of cars I had

1985 Camaro 2.8
1988 Grand Prix GT
1992 Camaro RS
1994 Camaro Z-28
1998 Camaro Z-28(miss this baby the most)
2001 Extreme S-10 extended cab 4.3
2000 Camaro Z-28(the biggest POS that I have ever owned)
2002 Grand Prix GT
2004 GTO

so you can see, I have a little knowledge on the LS-1 motors and hoping by next year, my GOAT will be a screamer down the track!

You will find quite a few members are now GTO owners during your absence - there is plenty to play with on those things
