Default Quick run the Impala SS

Well here is a quick run of before and after the LS6 swap . Both were 35 mph rolls.

Great job posting before and after vids. Time for some rockers or cam!

The shifts cause such a lag.. I forgot what the stock shifts feel/sound like. (Horrible)

Didn't we have this conversation!!


It's still unclear if I'm coming down there this new years but if I do I'm 100% bringing the Impala(unless she breaks on me) so we can make that short trip to Mexico and take some photos! Sucks the track won't be open while I'm there.

LOL, I know....

I hope you get to make it down here for New Years. How many days will you be here if you come ?Maybe we can do some friendlys in the good old streets of Mexico. ...


I've met up with a couple of LS4 guys here and there and decided to go to the track on Wednesday. Its two Impys and two Montys. And all four SSs are black. Big coincidence on the color dont you think. Well hope you make down here , maybe we can have like some photo shootout or something.

If I come down then I'll probably drive down either late Friday(30th) or really early Saturday(31) and then probably leave Sunday or Monday.

I think a photoshoot with all black LS4's would be kickass!!

A big X 2 !!! Text me up when it gets closer to New Years so I can plan something out.

IMO, this is still the best mod for these cars. I'm glad you bit the bullet and made the swap. That looked a lot better!

You don't need to redo the trans for an intake swap.

The intake swap will cost anywhere from 700-1500 depending on parts used and tuning.
