Lol, name's Tate so I hoped and prayed that it would be!
Oh yeah, here's the scoop:
1998 Camaro SS NBM
Cloth Interior, non-hurst shifter, coupe.
No mods to speak of, looking for a used LS1

Welcome to Texas, weather is great, scenery is great and the people are great. Just be careful of the acscent that will soon develop.

Are you looking for a used LS1 vehicle or just an engine?

Mills will toss us out. They're quick about it too... But, if we can find a spot, I'm definitely in for another Katy meet. I liked the Cinemark, it was literally 3 minutes from the house

Welcome to Katy, if you see any really dirty LS1-powered cars rolling around, they're likely mine

Thanks guys! I'm up for a meet. Me and the roomies are renting a house in Plantation lakes. I'm willing to dish out my cell number if anyone's interested, just send me a PM!

Actually, I lied. I'm looking for a 6 liter. No LS2's, I'd prefer an iron block. Gonna scout around for some jukyards this afternoon.

Anyone know any place that's hiring around here besides the Kroger on Fry Road and Denny's?
