Default new ls1 owner
traded my 97 ws6 and 1600 for a 01 ss

i've ditched the oPtI crapper. the ss is stock except for a lid and feels faster than my full bolton lt1 car.

The ls1 is a little faster than the lt1 stock for stock.

A LS is like a whole new world of F-Body.

I thought they were similar untill I drove and worked on both.

Never owned an LT1, but I do love my LS1. Welcome to the crowd. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.
