I'm back!!!!
 
Hey guys!!! Long time no see!!!

I used to be on here back in the day - known as LT1Factor - I had a white '94 Z28, C6 wheels, Ellis did a ton of work on it.

Well now I'm back. I picked up an '02 SS M6 w/ 30k miles a little bit ago.

Anyways, just wanted to say what's up! I'm looking forward to getting back into this scene!

Welcome back. Low miles....gotta love that. Mine just turned over 32k. Nice to see another low mileage Fbody. Post up some picks of the ride.

^^ I hear that a lot. Times change. Welcome back guy. I'm just past "rookie" status. I'm giving LS1tech my attention for now. Met a lot of great folks and solid advice with resources. Too many websites to juggle. See ya around. PICS! ;)

You don't pass the noob/rookie status until you get the basic bolt ons put on your car. :bomb:

LS1Factor Feb 12, 2013 10:36 AM

Oh there'll be bolt ons! I'm looking at lids right now and I'll go from there. I threw a lou's short stick on right when I got it. It's def a little different compared to modding the LT1 I had before. The car came with a magnaflow exhaust; I haven't had a chance to climb under the car and see if it's just the muffler or a cat-back.

I'm heading to Vegas next week but after that I'm planning on starting the process. Any recommendations on good bolt-ons?

Yeah, the LS motors respond a lot better to mods verse the LT1's.

Bolt on wise, port & polish the TB along with the bump stop delete to the TB, UD pulleys, TSP makes a nice set of stainless 1-7/8 LT's & ORY. Those mods alone will add some good power on. I'd say look into a FAST Intake, but your current LS6 intake is more than fine. I'd change that out if and when you did H/C or cam only.

LS1Factor Feb 12, 2013 11:28 AM

I hadn't heard of the bump stop delete so that's good to know! I just looked up those headers, not bad at all price wise and I have the car registered at my folks place in Chelan so I don't care about emissions/cat. lol

I've been looking at the FAST intake so good to know I'm looking in the right direction.

Nice. Sounds like you are heading in the right direction!

. Ha! You forgot I have a few. So, Factor, I'm hoping your car is black, since you're back.

tmoney223 Feb 13, 2013 08:03 AM

Go with the 92/92 if you're staying stock cubes.

*02WS6TURK* Feb 13, 2013 09:55 AM

+1 for the FAST 92/92. I picked up good power all over the RPM range with it. Plus they look really cool :) Now I just need to ditch my factory 241 heads to something better. Money money money.......

Good to know on the FAST 92 - I'll take a gander at that.

Nice man. I love the factory wheels those came with. A local guy had a set of those powder coated at a local shop to a gunmetal finish and they looked sweet.

LS1Factor Feb 13, 2013 12:57 PM

Thanks man! yeah I like those wheels too, been trying to figure out what to do with them.... lol

Decisions!

That is a good looking car, careful or you will get the mod bug like myself and a few of us have and you will end up with jackstand queen lol.

zlicious94 Feb 14, 2013 10:07 AM
