Believe me those two cylinders make a huge difference. Plus he modified the hell out his LS, I'm sure he'll get a lot of that SS.

Only the 67s and 68s. Oh, and speaking of pop up lights.. guess who just lost a gear train on his driverside?

Should post pics when I pull it apart, it'll make changing your 'maro to wisper lamps look like chancing a light bulb in a house lamp.

They rotate using a sort of scissor jack assembly that also rotates 45*. Yeah, I'm still trying to figure out how to tackle it and whether or not to just not drive at night and wait to change to standard bulbs rather than sealed beams.

Yes, '02 Trans Ams used sealed beams, while the Camaros used bulbs since '98.

Said they only offered him $19K on the LS, not bad because the thing retailed at 24K brand new. Only a 5K hit which accounts for all the mods he did in the end.

I'd rather have an Iron Block though.. My LS is starting to show it's low end differences. Gotta rev into the OH SHIT zone on the tach (north of 3500) and I never can with all the ohio cops here in.. OH LOOK OHIO!
