Depending on the health of your block and whether it makes sense to or not, it might be worth picking up a 6.0 iron block and building it up over time while being able to drive your car around. That seems to be the hot ticket right now because those iron blocks are so damn strong and cheap.

Already doing a lq since I spun a bearing in the stock ls1, and gonna drive it around for a while like that. Hopefully stroker down the road with the block. When new motor goes in, possibly pick up some l92 heads (Have stock 243s now), a ported fast, and some new LTs, as well as a clutch and tick master. Hopefully pick some MPH up on the trap (118.54 at like 1600 DA last time), and get ready for the rear end before more power and actually launching the damn thing.

Yes indeed. Last I heard when he went up to sound performance he paid for the new exhaust manifold, also got the arp bolts and what not to repair the head gasket leakage. He was also talking about finally getting solid rear mounts and/or some other increased traction business. Hopefully soon.

It's not that its a super fast car. It's just the way torque kicks in and all the noises along with the *** end wagging across the road must be unsettling for those not used to it.

Cool, keep me posted. I'm dying to run a supra and Neal's a cool dude in my book.
I'm goin to mount a gopro inside the car and just record peoples reactions. I wish I would have gotten my girlfriend on video. I've never heard her scream like that before. I had a smile all day after that

Many years ago I was in my cammed lt1 at a stop light on street tires. A friend pulls up in a 4dr kia with 4 people in the car and wants to run. I laugh and he says "i know u will kick my *** but I wanna see it run." light turns green and I drop the hammer. I look out my window and watch the kia casually stroll by with three of the people hanging out the window watching all the smoke pouring off my tires. Don't get caught with your pants down, get tire.
