I GOT NEW TOYS!!!!!!!
 

hey gang,
as some of you know i have been looking for an LS1 to throw into my 83 Z28 for a while now. well, this week i paid for it and today i picked it up. :)
from a wrecked 99 SS, pass side impact. car had 11k on it(10,780.2 to be exact) and was a recent purchase after a dealer trade in(it still had a temp tag in the friggin window.)
if everything goes well i expect to be firing this thing up with a turbo on it some time in march. :twisted:
check it out:

you had to throw in that little "and has cash" catch didnt you. DAMN YOU!!!

****, just put that ****er in and get it running as is!

:drool: no one can beat Ellis Juan.

as is = way too slow
the minimum acceptable when the turbo combo is complete and teh car hits the track in the spring is a 10.2 :twisted:
the stock motor is not capable of anything close to that. hehe

congrats on teh new motor...this is the first i heard of it.

if u dont mind me asking, how much did u get everything for and where did u get it from

$4500 bucks and i got it from contemporary corvette in bristol PA. they sell on ebay as "fparts". i work about 5mins from their shops so i would jsut pop over every once in a while to see if they got anything good in.

Oh boy...ANOTHER LS1. :roll: If its not the whole car, its just the engine.

Good luck on the swap.

jealous much? :D :j/k:

hardly the typical ls1 by the time it is installed. lots of power put in a very light package. it will be one of the quickest and fastest pump gas ls1's anywhere.
