It just ran at the Pump Gas Drags, and I believe it was the fastest LSx powered vehicle there with a 8.84 @ 135 in qualifying and then ran a 9.15 in the first round.

**** whats the matter? Japs putting ls1's in their car's, were putting shitty I6 turboed motors in our classic mustangs, and to quote chris rock, the best golfers black and the best rappers white! The world is comeing to a end!

BTW I know a guy that put a ls1/t56 in a mazda, one that came with a rotory, and his plates say NOROTOR
