From paper gaskets that have to be scraped off (PITA) to different connectors that don't match other years...etc...etc... It's not necessarily such a bad thing, just different...

Well it's sold now 
Cause I bought it
The car is a little bit of a turd and needs some work, but still its an LS1! Hopefully it will be making an apperance at the track July 7th if I can talk my buddy into it!

Oh yeah, I think the original ad said 130k miles...its actually 103k miles.
The car does have some issues.
It has a check engine light on. The guy said it needed an O2 sensor
There is some noise from the rear end when turning. I don't know if a fluid change with LSD additive would help or not
Could use new brakes
Rear bumper cover has scrapes and chips from someone hitting it
scratch in side skirt
a few other minor comsetic things
no antena
butt ugly 16" wheels that I don't think have ever been cleaned
It seems to be kinda slow. Granted, I have never owned an auto LS1, and only driven 1 or 2 of them. I think this has the 3.23 gears cause it was cruising about 2000 rpms on the highway (~65mph). Its bone stock too. And now I'm used to the vette which has some mods, weighs about 500lbs less, and is a stick....so maybe its fine.
On the good side.
The seats are in extremely good shape for being at 103k miles....my T/A's seats were in about the same condition when i got it at 15k miles. They're also the ones with adjustable side supports (niether my T/A or Formula had this).
It's got a 12 disc changer, though my wife couldn't get it to work last night.
So the question is....to part or not to part
