They started covering LT1's again? For a period when I subscribed it was nothing but LS stuff. Well congrats to Fatboy, I may have to resubscribe.

PS Is the car road race now or just street/drag trim?

They also had an article about an LTCC conversion on their project '95 Formula the "Dirty Bird".

Thanks guys, was a dream come true for sure. The perfect ending.....I am done with the car, I have achieved all I set out to do with it, Truly got to live my dream. It was a long hard road, you really have to love an underdog to build a car like that because it aint like having an LS1 car where you make a phone call with a credit card to go fast.

I appreciate all the friendship on this board, been an honor to be a member here. I appreciate every pissing match I got in, it has been a load of fun.

I have moved on and the car will be sold. I will drive it to the cruise I built it for in south Mississippi in October with for sale signs on it.

I am road racing now with a 6 speed 99 Z28, too much fun to even describe.

I will peek in from time to time and see whats up. I have a few posts over in the road racing section and thats where I will be, stirring the pot over there.

That is great, David. I think I even recall you working on that thing from back in the early 2k's on cz28.

Take care
