I've driven/flogged the ls3 SS more than I should (sorry Dave) but honestly never been behind the wheel of the auto.

So... where is yours, still in the closet????

Now that the joke is over, that was a pretty terrible thing to say. After all, even straight people, even kids who have never had sex... have AIDS...

it's a fact, actually. gay men account for like 2% of the population but account for nearly 80% of new aids cases each year.


the more you know.

Next day after the race 2nd gear let go so I put in a built 4l60e and ptc 4500 converter, car runs amazing for only having the long tubes 4.10's and the stall, have a set of toyo proxy tq's on it and it just annihilat's the tires. Looking to let a good tire once I burn these off.

Mach did not do to bad considering the small amount of mods. Good runs!

Heh... Ram air and a Pro-M are mods still, right? "Welcome to the end of an era" is what I thought of those mods, which don't amount to squat really, without at least also having headers. I didn't expect to see much of it though, since the Camaro has more stuff and a tune and was already more powerful when they started.

Truth..
Stock Mass Air Flow meter is good for 400Hp. That mod does absolutely nothing for the car.
Opening up the exhaust especially the mid pipe is vital. I was amazed at how much exhaust restrictions come on the MACH from the factory.
