Thanks guys, it was definitely a fun time!

stumprrp, I've been around LT1's for about 10 years now, but it's still pleasantly suprising to see a well built one that kicks some ***. If you're budddy built his right then it's going to be one very nasty machine.

fucter, yeah I couldn't just leave him there, that would have been kind of fucked up, haha. He turned out to be real cool and is up for a rematch once he gets it back on the road.

Its very hard to hide spray on LT1's. LS1's its pretty easy to hide the kits.

Its rare to see many clean C4's anymore. I saw a badass one at Newton's 1/8th strip one day at a Show & Shine/Drag day. Of course he didn't drag.

The car was a 383 that was built at SpeedInc. Mild 383 stroker build and mild camshaft and was apparently making 420rwhp

I see a few around here, but almost all of them are stock and most driven by old men who couldn't care less about horsepower.
