Default My first real magazine article!

Hey guys...just wanted to share my excitement.

I have had the pleasure of working with Corvette Enthusiast magazine and a handful of fabulous vendors including GM Performance on installing a crate LS2 into a 1985 Vette.

All of this got kicked off about 8 months ago with a deadline of having the car up and running by the end of August to drive to Carlisle, PA.

I was also asked to write the "how to" article covering the install, electronics, power adders - then a final wrap up over a four part series.

Well...we did it, and the first article is out now as the December issue. If you get a chance to see it, it is under Modern Moddin (putting a LS2 into a C4).

congrats! Your black vette hasn't ever been in a magazine? That surprises me that your cars haven't been used for an article.

Yep - it has been featured several times, but I didn't get to write those articles, nor have we done a straight up tech piece on that car.


I'll see if I can get something to post up on the web. Amos publishing doesn't host a website like Primedia does.
