Newbie to LS1 Hey, names Bianca. I have an LT1 which is my baby and now officially going to become track only. So I thought I would get an LS1 and daily it cause I'm in love with F-bodies. Not a totally clueless gurl. I helped pull my motor and rebuild it and love going down the 1/4 mile strip. Haven't been in to the racing seen too long but I'm addicted.
Here's my LT1:
Oh yeah... Forgot to mention my block and brake calipers are pink! Haha....

Don't blame you one bit, plenty of potential in that engine and it sounds like you're invested. Just don't get upset when your stock LS1 SS is quicker

Thanks! I love it. Its not too much pink cause I like to surprise people when I get out of the car and pop the hood to see the pink motor!

I won't get too upset. LOL, but I am too curious as too how bad or good that 355 is gonna be on the track.

From the list of your mods I'd be floored if you didn't get into the 12s with LT's, catback and a strong suspension (you'd be surprised the difference that makes), and a nice set of tires. I'm guessing its an A4? A stall would be huge for getting a strong launch too.
