buy an ls1, the paint job on the car is ugly for one . Two its a build engine car and i dont know if id trust it . Ive seen too many people with built engines that are dogs. For 10000 he can find a clean ls1 car . I just think he would be better off buying a ls1 vehicle over the lt1.

Does SLP make a 5" Loudmouth exhaust? That's got to be incorrect unless he has fabbed something up. If it is 5", it would be interesting to see how he got that to fit.

Who Needs floor pans. Just run it up through the hatch area and back down right into the fuel tank. Should make for an interesting fire works show when it back fires.

i would buy a solid $3k LT1 car and spend the other $7k on engine/drivetrain if he has $10k to blow. it would roll out and not look stupid.
i have a '94 z28 m6 i would sell for $3k. lol

Yea this is a HUGE flag. I have a 5500 stall in my race car and I would never drive anything near that on the street.

The other thing that doesn't add up is the 5 psi, why even run a blower if that is all you are going to do?

Then the lack of suspension or 10-bolt and probably stock transmission are lame.


Don't buy someones project car unless you get an awesome deal. A car is not worth any more than it's stock value.
