Default ode to my LT's

man ive had these things in the car for id say 6 months now, and the car has had alot of down time. head gasket, THEN a motor rebuild. anyway between work, abd the breaking it in, and the being afraid it will break, and all that. well today i just let loose and damn the thing pulls so much harder up top. its so great. the best mod ever lol.
