not to bad with install kit, gears and labor but why 4.10's. your gas miliage is going to go to **** with an automatic. 3.73's would be your best bet and still maintain good milage, i only noticed maybe a mile or two difference in mine with my 3.73's

+1 to Ruben.

So I looked at some C5 wheels and tires today that this guy wants to trade me. The wheels were in pretty good condition. Tires supposedly had 'lots of tread' left lol They were pretty much tore up. Dry rotted, not that much tread, so Im not trading him.

I found out last night that my grandma in Illinois died 2 days ago. So I am going to fly out there this weekend this weekend for the service.

When I get back I'll give you a call Jeff and come check out those WS6s!

i'll just get a new one then...not sure what my next car will be, but it's coming soon...

M'm corvette motor...I hate idiots...Some guy came in the shop 2 days ago with a 2000 A4 Corvette, he pissed me off so i challenged him to a race...Had my checkbook ready, 500$ in cash, and my car on the line...And he wouldn't bite because he has 350hp...I should have just layed him out, but i'd probably lose job...

Also, today i installed an exhaust and Intake on a 2006 Audi S4...Thing totally makes an Fbody, or any GM product, look like a big hairy ***...So nice and well put together...

Eh, you win some you lose some.

That's one thing i miss about the Evo...The handling...I could drive that as hard as i wanted and the car would just laugh at me...

I remember after installing my twin disc clutch, i stallled like 7 times before i even got the car to move...Thing hooked after that though...


Thanks for the tip Toretto!

I dont know what ls1 tech would do without you.

Just a little FYI......

www.lt1tech.com is a website...i know you guys wish you had an ls1..but we all have those dreams...i woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare that I owned an LT1...then i went in the garage and realized that I wasnt gay.


haha that was pretty messed up...but i had to say it...

I like your t/a Joey.

the SS has a V8 just so you know...And the Evo, if it has any kind of mods, would probably hurt a lightly modded LS1...
