Default New LS1er in FL.
Hey guys. I just purchased a 1998 Camaro Z28 M6. Drove it home last night and it's pretty awesome. I had driven my dad's 2005 GTO before but this is just a whole nother beast. It has coated Pacesetter longtubes and ORY. 91000 miles and sounds and runs great.

And because we all know that , here's a crappy phone picture.




Looking forward to modding

No stereo or anything in the back. Might have been on a full tank though.



There's a better picture. It does look a tad low in the back.

It's good to see that theres a few members around this area. I'll definately let you know if I need help with anything. My dad does LSx based tuning if you ever need a hand in that department as well.
