Nice! I'm trying to get him into an LS car but he's wanting to build a 383 lt1.

yeah I had a 95 formula with cold air and a flowmaster muffler and I beat him with him having full exhaust and more mods. Told him a turboed lq4 would possibly be cheaper. Just hate to see a friend throw money away

Whats up with that, Do you kids find it a huge issue to drive a proper car 'MANUAL' or something? **** if you can't handle a manual box you shouldn't be driving.
Not saying I can't handle it... just saying I haven't been driving it as long as other people so I was stating that with more experience the win might have been greater. Experience comes with practice and practice takes time. I haven't had a lot of time in my car running it hard that's all. At least I didn't miss a shift like I've seen many other people do who have had their cars for way longer.

The same red 95 Z? Cause he never told me that and I took him to cincy to go get the thing haha. I know the guy he bought it from used to spray on it but umm no I don't think it has ever been turboed. Maybe he was expressing what he wants to do? lol
