1 nice metal bat...


no i have heard with suspension, gears, and h/c/i you can run with or beat ls1 cars. I have heard you will walk em but i am skeptical on "walking" em, i wouldnt doubt beating them though.

A Trick Flow or a Holley Systemax II kit. I beat Camaro SS's all the time. Save your pennies.

A good H/C/I setup and gears, you can toy with LS1s all day.
