    theres more then 2k of money in that car. ls1s are halfway under windshields themselves in fbodys
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    he originally payed less than $1000 for both cars. alot of trading was involved to keep the cost down. yes on f-bodies the engine is halfway under the windshield. i dont like that. i like working on the engines and having them under the hood is easier, instead of building it like a van.
