    It's fucked up when you go to a car specific meet, and all the cars are engine swapped

    The one with the turbo LS1 was in modified magazine awhile back - pushing well over 400whp for under $10k :boobies: Actually v8 swaps are still somewhat common with the car ( hell, back in the 90s JEG's had a kit for a 350 or a 340 swap )

    Exactly. Who cares anyways. It's still the same exact car...just typically faster.

    I wouldn't mind owning one, almost did, but they are hard to find in good condition.

    Is that not the loaded model's (GTS?) wing?

    You can find videos of the turbo'd LS1 on youtube. Mostly videos of it not being able to gain traction, though judging by its rims and its stance, it has new suspension instead of 20 year old worn out suspension that caused wheels to lift off the ground.

    I saw all of those guys as we were in Gatlinburg for the 4th weekend. They looked very nice sitting in the Hotel parking lot when we rode by.

    Very cool. I've always liked those cars.
