Yea, I am thinking about the same thing.. once my '95 all finished up with the 402, thinking about getting a small Car and doing a LT1 swap into that, since I still have the Harness and PCM from my LT1.

Well.. for the hell of it I thought I would make a post..
Apparantly the Little Rock guys here have a "group" consisting of LS1's. I guess I am not cool enough to join..I am a dipshit driving a POS car..
I know alot of the people, and a few of them have that attitude that I discussed earler. It was pretty much the same as when that one guy that I knew tried to talk **** here on page 3, and then his bro jumped in..then they got shut down by some of you guys.
I just don't have that "hey, you have a LS1, I am goin to kiss your ***, and everything else sucks" attitude that some people here have.

I do have the "I got a bunch of ******* to go get now.." attitude now..

I have even had a few spats with some of you guys.. but damn, all the guys here are cool and we all talk about all kinds of ****, LT1 or LS1 drivers. I like to talk about my **** alot, I know, but I will help any of you all out with anything, many know this.

Must be different when you get a LS1..and a LT1 smokes it ***, you build the LS1 up, and the LT1 gets swapped out for a big-*** Engine..

Time to get the body parts swapped so you don't look like an LT1. People are just silly. Maybe it's because you're not running a REAL LS1, since it's the iron block.

I am still goin to look like an LT1 so people see them get destroyed by a "LT1" Camaro, and then give them all kinds of **** about it. I won't even pop my Hood, winners rights.
I don't know what's up with them.. I think it's funny. You talk **** to the fast car..
I would rather have the fast car running with me, rather against me.

What happened to the good times just sitting around and bullshittin about the cars and kicking some ***, wether you are fast or slow..
I got friends with Imports that I would destroy, but it's fun as hell to go with them and race..it's all for fun with whatever cars we take..
