Default Hello from Michigan

Hi!

New here to LS1TECH, very neat site.

I'm not a LSX owner but I do have a 93 TA with a 383 Stroker, 6 Speed, Black, RAM Air and a bunch of mods.
I bought my car wrecked and spent 3 months restoring the frontend, windshield, and dash in my parents garage.
I got the car for 2500 and spent 8000 fixing it and the past 5 years have gone through 4 different engine setups going fron a 355 up to my curent 383.

My best time at the track was 13.00 with my last setup with AFR 180's, .500 lift cam, LT's and a 3.23 gear.
I have now gone up to a .570 lift cam and AFR 190's, LT's, MSD Ignition, 42lb SVO's, and a 9" with 4.10's.
I havn't had it to the track, I had tuning isues that kept me in the garage till late Aug. last year.
I have a secret project that I'm working on that should be done in June so I will keep you posted.

Speeking of posted, how do you post pics in your post?

Any how, looking forward to learing a lot on the LS motors, I just landed a 2001 Vett motor for 500 and all I have to do is put it together,
