Tampa kid with a 5.0 joining the other side

Hey guys, i've had my car for a little over 3 years now, ordered it while I was deployed and picked it up the day I got home

Since then she's been good, started in Idaho now stationed in Tampa, and looking to change it up and get a camaro

Seems like everyone in Tampa has a V6, not sure why they'd waste their money but i'll be bringing a nice SS to the city

I make 440rwhp with intake tune and full exhaust

That is a nice 5.0, nice to see you coming towards the light :p

So what has made your decision to trade off the 5.0 for a camaro?

Thanks man, much appreciated

Looking for something new, always liked the LS platform - can't go wrong with a big cam!

Great looking car, you are going to enjoy your SS, especially after the cam mod.

Hello from another Tampa member! I'm surprised I haven't seen your Mustang around.

Dude nice Mustang, we have very similar set ups. Sad to see you go but glad that you're sticking to V8 and RWD. LS will be a much more cost efficient platform to get big power out of without a blower!
