Hey guys, came across this site and decided to sign up. I sport an 02 LS1, 6 speed with some bolt ons.

Can anyone point in the right direction to track down videos of the 2008 LA invasion?

Thanks

Found out later my intake setup (the way I purchased the car) was suffocating motor. It's since been resolved ;)

I love both Fords and GM's. I happen to get a deal on mine. I used to own a Ford.

Ummm, on my LS1, full exhaust from headers to tail pipes with x pipe, cold air, lowered, springs shocks, sway bars. ZR1's, etc. Some other good goodies too. Motor has not been touched, just all bolt ons but a lot still stock too.

I had an LS1 and went back to Ford, LOL. Nice car though, I loved my LS1 Camaro.

What's on the 20th? I see that one of you has a Benz, AMG? I'm going to try and talk my friend into LA invasion to bring out his CL600, V12 twin turbo...even just for one pass.

I know, less traffic. He won't be posting problems he's having with his car as much as a Ford user would. :nutkick:

I know you are one of the "brighter" ones here, but, not at this moment!:lmfao:

Haha, I kid, sort of. New Fords are good. Old Fords are cool. 80s and 90s Fords... :leaving:

My friends 1st gen Mustang stock was the slowest, worst handling, worst braking, least comfortable, least safe car I'd ever been in. But... it's a 1st gen Mustang! And therefore one of my favorites. :) Just like my car, it only takes a little bit of loving to make it a serious performer.

And my friend is doing just that. I can't wait to show case it here. It's going to be a FI Turbo H&C 250 I6 with a 5 speed and a Currie 9." Strange I know, but it's going to make power. I'm excited about it.

Unfortunately you are correct on the 1st gen Mustangs. Shelby moved the upper control arm 1.5 inches to help the handling. They were cheaply made vehicles. They were just pretty Falcons. But, they were pretty,:thumbs_up:

Cool about a forced induction 6. Something different that is.;)
