And just like that, Im back in the game!

Whats up fellas?

Just wanted to leave an intro. Started my LS love with a 2000 SS M6 that I had built before having to sell it about 4 years ago. Ever since I have wanted to get into another Fbody when the time was right. Now that the new house is built the wife gave me the blessing a few weeks ago. I found a few cars for sale locally to me because of this site and made short order of picking up a 2010 IOM 1SS with a 427 LS3. Absolutely beautiful car and light years ahead in just about every aspect from what I was used to with the 2000SS.

I live in IN and am fortunate to have a few very reputable shops withing an hour and a half from me into IL. I plane on a bigger cam and a 102 Fast setup in a few weeks, and a fresh tune. I used to frequent LS1Tech a lot, but this place feels more like home!

Welcome! Love the look of your old SS. What all was done with it? And the 5th gen looks great too. You have an idea of what cam you will be going with?

Old SS was a 403 LS2, suspension, Moser 12, full exhaust. You name it.

Not sure on the new cam yet. Gonna call TX Speed tomorrow and see what they would recommend based off of current specs.

It's good to have you aboard. Be sure to get us some videos at the track after you get those parts installed.

SERVED_USMC, CONGRATS on the ride and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, dad's, wive's, husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's here don't care....and take it easy.



oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!
