Very good!

I have always appreciated the LS1s. My first performance car was one of the 260hp 4.6L V8 Mustangs... I had that thing geared to hell (4.10s) with full bolt ons; I could hang with you LS1 guys through the first couple of gears but by the time you'd hit 3rd it was over. Nothing was more intimidating for me than seeing an SS or WS6 in my rear view mirror. When I got my Z i'd still get a chill when I saw one... and even with the 5.0 I just assume that any LS1 left on the road is probably modded to hell.

Thanks man. Mine definitely isn't modded like most, lol. Truly just LT headers, small cam, and a tune. Thanks again!

Thanks!
Wish I had mine when the new 5.0's came out.
