Nice stuff, im curious to see what it makes after the TPS issue is settled. Yeah thats the only downside with e85. Probably with EWP and E85 you could get really close to that 500rwhp goal you have.

Let me ask this here... If you had $4,000 to spend on a starter car that you would have to daily drive and make decently quick (12 seconds best, mid 13s more like it)... what would you start with, go for, etc
Brand name not an issue. Chevy, Ford, Nissan, etc.

Easily an LS1 Fbody. No question IMO.

If you were looking to get one right away, might not be the best choice.

Find a low mileage junkyard LM7 and 4l80e or 4l60e if wanting to be cheaper and rock it for awhile and scan the parts classifieds on forums for used parts
That being said, if I were to ever pick up another F-body, it'd likely be a Trans Am roller for a good price, throw on a ws6 hood, and motor/trans of my choice. Too many overpriced WS6s IMO nowadays. When a Trans Am is going for the price of some C5s, I'd go the C5 9 times out of 10. Even though I think WS6s look much better

I was about to buy a super clean silver 98 Camaro roller for my buddy for $1500
