Default New guy from WI

Hello everybody,

I'm Kal from WI. I just purchased a 04 GTO and I thought this would be a great place too meet some new ppl and get some good information.

My car is a black, bone stock GTO but I'd like to join the 400hp club very soon. I don't know much about the LS1 engines because I'm pretty old school when it comes to Pontiacs. I'm currently rebuilding a 66 GTO with a 389 tri-power.

Thanks for reading... hope to get pics up soon!

Kal
