Default Greetings from an old man.

Thanks to those responsible for this forum, including contributors. I have been reading lots here and decided to register, although lurking in the background has been fun, lol.
My hopes are to learn things associated with putting an ls1 or 2 in my newly acquired 2003 extended cab v6 s10. Carl.
