Default Ok who did it?

was at the Ottos meet and while me white man and ls1vasquez and a few others were talking this 02 35 le SS pulls up. all black with silver graphics. car looked good. it sort of distracted us. the owner gets out and pops the hood!
and what do i see?











the owner swapped out the ls1 and put in a stock lt1.

only if i had a camera.

Phuckstick should be shot for doing something like that, atleast put a 632 big block with 4 kits if you're going to do a swap!!! Joe did you look to see if the fuel lines were coming through the drivers side wheel well???

nothing there. it had the fuel lines next to the strut tower. no hole in the usual lt1 spot.

Was it a tall young hispanic guy driving it? If so it's a 97 that he just did a heads and cam job on. It was all black with silver stripes. He stopped by my house and said he was headed out to ottos. Its his dads ride and it had some gunmetal zo6 wheels on it??

I saw a similar SS friday night at the area 51 meet. Supposedly he had a built LT1 with all the LS1 body moldings with the front end and hood. So from afar, it appeared to be an LS1 car but it was a pre 98, pulled very nice as well!

That must be it...

It was quite ironic having Joe's car and his car right there together. None of us would have guessed it before he popped the hood.
