New toy, got an LS1.......



All for now, it's a Z28 but I'm cloning it to an SS, my mom is in the hospital so I have to head out in a few to go see her. Just a teaser for now.

Re: New toy, got an LS1.......

Ok, time for the story on it.

98 Camaro Z28 99k mi with the LS1 and the auto tranny. Headers and dual exhaust so it's loud and fast.

Reason I got it, me and the fiance of 2yrs split. SO I had the money to do what I wanted to do and for 6k I would have been stupid to pass this one up.

Won't know anything else on my mom till tomorrow.

I'm green with envy

One little problem though... they installed the wrong transmission in it!

I knew it!

Sorry to hear about the fiance. What are your plans for the Camaro? Just my .02 I would leave it a Z28 instead of cloning a SS. Z28's always were more of a true Camaro to me.
