Well, it isn't an LS motor, but it is the factory LT-1 with a Comp Cam 280H and roller rockers, and alot of machine work and new add ons..

Yes, i am on my way to east bay muscle car, so i will get on it some to check the advance curve.

Then we put the two silver springs in...Then,it should rev just like i want it two. We are close now..

Then one last test before I autocross, the rookie that i am...

Thank God we had the two blue springs in the MSD...If I had ALL the power, I sure would have used it... Good I learned the newness of the car first..

Today I test with the blue and silver spring...Later next week , the two silver springs and game on...

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Other than bad mileage, this engine just screams...

Heavy lope and then wicked sounds at WOT..

I do love my Factory installed LT-1..

When you see me at an event, and hear it at idle and WOT, you will know why...

For me, it is the best of both worlds..

I can LS another car someday..
