Default New to LS1TECH from AZ

Hello from the desert. I'm a former Development Engineer at GM's Desert Proving Grounds in AZ and have a great appreciation for Camaros and LSX powered cars in particular. Ive been visiting the site for a while and finally had a reason to sign up with my latest aquisition of an 4th gen Z-28 A/T car. Not sure how long I'll have it, but it is a very pleasant driving car. It joins the current batch of F-bodies including: A 3rd gen Iroc, 421 with twins. A Zero miles 4th gen "Body in White" T/A race car project. And a 2nd gen car sarcastically referred to as the "Babe Magnet". Other non F-bodies- 02 truck, 04 Tahoe, 70 Nova, 87 442(would make a great LS1 car), 93 Probe. I think I need to get rid of a few cars?

Great site. I'm really impressed with the gains the cars on this site have making on the drag strip over the last year+.

Welcome to the site from somebody else in PHX. Sounds like you're hooked on GM power, lol. My only question is how did that Ford get in there?

Default Probe was a freebie.

Just doing my part to save fuel (sortof). It's really hard to get in the Probe with the Camaro beckening.
