yes limber, lots of friends have street LS1 and a few LT-1 cars i know they are a pain!!!

thanks for the info on the engine combo's though. i really appreciate it and tj310 i plan on it having a clutch haha, im not an auto guy! hint, read my signature hahaha.

seems to me not many young people getting into class type racing especially stick-shift's call me crazy i love it!

LT-1
Great car to drive and race
But easily one of if not THE worst car to work on.
From under the hood to trying to get up under the dash those cars rank as worse than anything else I've ever had.

I don't miss owning one....

Ed I was thinking of the LS 1 A stockers when I made the deep 9 statement . I thought your car was still a torque arm ? Looks like 9" slicks in your avatar. I know you ran up some pretty good #s.
I built our 84 Trans Am to be stock legal but wev'e been running a couple of different old anemic carbed S/S smallblocks in GT/J to a best of high 10.s. I'm putting in our good stocker 305 and a new Liberty LSC5000 as we speak. ( I'm on lunch )
My wife drives a Zed /28 LT/ 1 T56 to work. I agree with Rich, It was easier to re+re + re the injectors than re the plugs.

That avatar was my old foot brake bracket deal. Back halved, 13" tires & 4 link now.

Try an LT-1 in a 94/96 Impala SS...

Runs K/LM/SA
Can run deep 11's with right combo.
Uses F-body cam specs.
FYI..use the 96 Iron Head.

Easy to work on !

hope this helps
