Default New Guy, Long Post

Hey, I'm already a member at Camarov6.com and thought I'd join here because this site provides such great info. I currently have a Silver 2000 Camaro A4 3.8L with t-tops, but I'm entertaining the thought of a LS1 swap. I'll most likely cam my v6 and run with LT1s,lol. My dream is to one day buy a v8 camaro and hopefully when i save up enough money I'll get one. So far on my v6, I have borla exhaust, slp CAI, whisper lid, decal inserts, halo headlights, and 35th aniv. edition wheels. Its pretty quick but I've seen LS1s in action :hail:. Next step is new leather interior and a cam or new motor. Sadly, its most likely going to be the cam. Well, sorry for the lenghty post. Glad to be a member and I hope to learn a lot from the site.

-Adam

It may be a V6, but the 3.8L is one of the best motors made by GM. I had one that last over 300k miles. They really are reliable engines.
