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..

Thanks...

I went out again last Night..

Drove another 50 miles breaking the new stuff in..

I think it will be time to let Steve rack it and give it the once over before Summer..

My health is good right now, and I am taking advantage of it..

I may need more power, err, I want more power, but I have plenty to learn the Car handling for now...Autocross and HPDE , here we come...

I got to get my feet wet, before going out to play with the BIG dogs...

It is not done, but done enough..Had I gone for a complete redo, I may have never gotten it done..

Yes, Flash, my Life is all about Bucket Lists now...So that is why the name is changed..
