Default Young LS1 newb
Hey everyone, ive been browsing this site for a little while, but now i finally joined up and most importantly now have an LS1 powered vehicle. I'm 17 and live in Wisconsin and will be picking up my new toy tomorrow which is a 2001 Firebird Formula Right now i have a 1996 V6 camaro that is "all show and no go" which i am selling so i can afford the bird. I've been a camaro guy all my life and this is my first experience with a firebird so i know nothing about these. Hopefully i will be able to learn something here

Welcome to the site. I went from a 94 V6 3.4 Camaro to a LS1 Bird myself. Good luck with the Bird.
