Car looks good for an ls1 Camaro. Trading a 383 lt1 for a ls1 with out heads and can is a head scratcher to me. By the way my ltx has no opti and runs decent, lol!

the car has 96k on it and no motor work just new head gaskets and the cam install w/ the new valvetrain but the car is insanely clean and was very taken care of the owner i bought it from had it since 11k miles and bought it mid 2002

and i went from a 383 lt1 to a non headed ls1 car because i just wanted to get the hell away from lt1's and going from that to a very well taken care of ls1 with 400 to the wheels justified it perfectly it will have heads in the next 6 months for sure so then it will be faster than my lt1 was

yes putting an ls1 in the car would be another option but i would rather sell my lt1 and put another 750 and get an ls1 car that has perfect interior and has been taking care of and is a perfect daily driver other than not having a car and put the ls1 in the lt1
