What makes you ask him that? I'm guessing it's the fact that most 16 year olds can't afford a V8.

I just don't see any other reason to guess that he's 16. I got my LS1 when I was 17. (going on 22 now)

yeah, (oh, by the way newb, congrats, dont think i said that last time.) its hard after having a sports car to go any other direction. i had my LT1 then due to finances i had to sell it and wound up with a GT stang. ive never wanted to beat a car so much to get more power out of it. but it was (is) a good car, i got a steal. in 02 i bought this 96 lady owned white GT with 45k on it for 3 grand so i couldnt bitch. and it looks great, but now that i got an LS1 back as a toy...god its wonderful
