Yeah-pre LS1 vehicle can be had with slight mods....and good driving...my problem is that when I raced them sans the mods I have now-I always got sucked into THEIR race which means their optimum torque band and shift points...lol
BUT-you have to give credit where credit is due..GM has one awesome motor in that LS1...whew!
My aforementioned friend is now running a Z with these mods..Cold Air ,different Torque convertor,Borla,gears and with a 75 jetting went 11.9 and with 100 jet went 11.5 with a crummy 60 ft...DRs and all leather-wow...I love my C Pony but like Jim Campisano of MM&FF's Thunder Road Dec 2001 issue said,"If the 4.6 is such a high techwonder,this shouldn't be the least biyt difficult.Hell,Chevy sells a straight 6 cylindr that makes 270hp."
Pick your battles wisely when chasing GM's late models...
