    Don't forget your roots, Mag!

    All in all, Good Luck! Be sure to post how the "bigger monster" turns out!

    Remember: V8's are just grown up V6's.... [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

      N/a it will be harder to do, but it is doable. He could easily go with a larger cam, more aggresive heads, stroker kit.. etc..

            At idle it sounds great.. but in the upper RPM's and from a distance you can tell.

            I want that purty V8 sound that you often hear in the distance.. when you know somebody is tearing it up.. I want that somebody to be me.

            Well maybe you should look into an LT1 for sound. LS1s never impressed me sound wise espally on vettes
            [img]graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img] . LS1 will neve have that low pitch sound that an LT1 has, but hey what do i know. Well what ever floats you boat man, have fun with it ethier way. I will say taht the LS1s do make good power but other than that it is ok. If i did a V8 swap i would not go with an LS1. A bigblock is what i would be after. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

              I completely agree, LT1's GROWL!!!! But LS1's just make damn mad power. [img]smile.gif[/img]

              I was going to do big block but it's just too much work/$$$.. I can swap in an LS1 and be done with it and still go fast. [img]smile.gif[/img]

              If I was only into sound, I'd SO get a mustang, damn they sound great!

                        dominic, i thought you were a better person than this. that is a very taste-less and class-less comment.

                          I think he was cracking a joke. At least that's what I took it for.

                              See that wasn't so hard now was it?

                              Here's the reason I took it as a joke. Alot of LS1 guys complain about breaking their rear ends. Therefore dominic was making a joke that if he got a LS1 his differential would break. That was my take on it anyways. Where's the wash cloth? You need to scrub some of that sand out of your vagina. :D
