Feels strong, but still like a stock 01 LS1 on 3.42s aluminum driveshaft and open manifolds. Backpressure would be great... I love it though!

Looks great Lee! I think Alex and I have to pat ourselves on the back big time for a clean, fast, swap.

I will give ya that it does look like the engine belongs there. Wait it really does.. congrats.

If I coulda pulled from the bottom on the last swap I did it would been easier, but two different framed cars made it alot harder, so... through the top we went.

Working on a video. I'm already trying to find out what the light ticking sound is. Perhaps that's what they mean in the "You know you drive an F-body when..." thread by "You're always trying to find out what that ticking noise is".

2500 for the car. Cash got to keep a few choice pieces to sell or re-use on his own.

He got hit and it caused the car to hit a tree and roll. He is on painkillers for a leg that got somewhat pinched between the door and steering wheel but is otherwise fine and wandering around.
