But with the 5.3l and ls1s being so cheap, I can't imagine why you wouldn't go that route.

I'd like to make it that way before this season ends. The way the weather works anymore we won't have a long season for racing.

I'll never hold a candle to some of LT1's in this state. I'll be lucky if I ever have a 9 second anything, let alone something that drives across the states.

That's the truth. The market just came out with a lot of stuff a little too late to really have made major profit and influenced further research. Just my opinion.

Why fix what isn't broken?

Mines been running and driving wherever I please since 2010. Any time it's down I'm just making some changes (knock on wood).

i respect a guy that builds something fast thats not suppose to be. not sayin a lt1 is that. but alot of ppl over look them. ya its alot easier to build a ls . but as he said if its not broke dont fix it.
but ya u will have to come out one night. we usally go to a spot thats about between lex and pike . always a full night of racing. alway 25+ Cars . 1/8 mile tho. but u dont have to worry about cops . what few times they did show up. they watched and hung out. but its out of the way and a 1 way street type deal. like they are makin new house seats up top of a mountain but nothing around or no one build yet.

Sounds promising to me. I'm fine with 1/8th or 1/4 mile stuff.

Law enforcement sounds like how it used to be around my area. Let a couple of idiots with smartass mouths ruin it for the rest of us though.

What does your heads/cam 350 run? Oh ****, never mind, I forgot you've had 0 runs down a 1/4 mile track. Previous owner did well though, no?
