[njsteve]

So what happened to that ZL1 Camaro? Wrecked or upgraded to a bigger motor?

Wrecked and totaled...........No other info........

[Bill Rose]

A buddy of mine owns a body shop. I've spent a good deal of time there working on my cars (paint booth etc) and I sometimes help with the towing part of his shop. He told me 99% of the time a car is rolled, it's totaled, but often leaves the drive train intact. Maybe a possibility with this one.

Looked at some pic's from the listing and it looks like the car was a roll over.....

[Charley Lillard]

There was a identical one out here at a dealer that a guy took on a test drive and rolled it on the freeway onramp.

[kwhizz]

After getting most of the Engine compartment &quot;Stuff&quot; hooked up.......I got the Intercooler system filled and Bled.....So I decided to install the rest of the sheet metal so I can get the ECM and forward wiring system installed.......Starting to look like a car again...........

When this one is done in a few days, there is plenty of time to build another one before the 2014 Power Tour.

[Canuck]

Hes trying to get it finished to head to njsteve's place and help him with the Blue Ox.

Killer stance--going on where the discs are located in the wheel openings.

[tom406]

I'm just feeling very inadequate since Ken will have built a Pro Touring car in the time I've taken dithering over WHICH PARTS TO ORDER for a car I've owned for several years. Gee, thanks Ken, Merry F'n Christmas to you too.

<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[Canuck]

There must be more than one Ken!!!!!

[70 Forest Green Zee]

Here's a sneak peak at Kwhiz's next project....looks like he's already started <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[kwhizz]

Got all the sheet metal installed and finish bolted in......Got the front Bumper back on and I also got the ECM and Trans Modules installed......Forward Lamp harness is next along the getting the Intercooler pump wired.......Now......I just need to find my Horns......they are here somewhere.......Dammmm!!!

looking mighty fine harness guy where's dem wheels ?

[notstock71]

I don't know how I missed this thread but I just read all 28 pages. Impressive and inspiring sums it up. I am in the middle of a 2009 LY6 6.0 with a 4L80 swap into my 71 Nova. I was thinking of using Speartech for my harness and your thread solidified that. I don't know what half the stuff I unplugged is. I am hoping making my B&amp;M Prostick from the old TH350 work with the 4L80 goes as easy as your adaptation did. There are so many little things to address it is overwhelming. Your car turned out beautiful.

[kwhizz]

John at Speartech takes 99.9 % of the difficulty and fear of switching to the LS platform out of the picture......

Ken

[kwhizz]

&quot;And&quot;........I would appreciate it if the person who took my Horns would return them so I could get the front wiring finished..........Just Say'in........

[Xplantdad]

So somebody is trying to &quot;horn in&quot; on your project? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

[SuperNovaSS]

Maybe you should go &quot;mess with a bull&quot;.........

Feeling a little horny are we Ken??? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif

[IM RARE]

look by the side of the tool box Just saying.... they don't have legs thats what my Mom always told me LOL

[jannes_z-28]

They probably are where you placed them...

[kwhizz]

First off......I would like to thank the person who brought my horns back and put them in the garage on the table in plain view........Thanks........

Now.....I got that mess of wires all cleared up in the front of the car.......I hooked up a temporary power feed and checked out the lights.........They actually worked......LOL........I bought an American Autowire Classic update wiring kit and they have anticipated any combination of options and or Gauge/Engine options......I was intimidated by the amount of wires and circuits in the beginning.....but......after looking at what I really needed to hook up....I started removing wires from the bulkhead .......Example.......with the Speartech LS harness, most everything is taken care of in that harness.....blending it into the system is as simple as a fuel pump lead a couple of grounds and keyed ignition power and Battery........That's about it......The Auto engine harness had a bunch of wires in it.....I ended up using 4 wires.....one for the Solenoid and three for the windshield wiper/ Pump assy.......The forward lamp harness was about as simple....about the only major thing I have left to do is tackle the inside.......That's next.....Hopefully the wheels and tires will show up soon also.......

You build some badass cars,I'm wondering what you could do with a truck.

[kwhizz]

Been working on the car every day........I am just about finished with the wiring in the Engine compartment......got the fan relay's installed along with the Battery cables, Dakota digital lines for the relays......fuel system wires all installed for the Vaporworx system.......The pressure Module was just finished up and is in transit....I also have all the Vintage Air wires hooked up........I also have the trans cooler lines fit and installed..........This Voltmeter guy stuff never ends.......But.....I did spin the engine over today.......Getting close.......No pictures of progress because everything looks the same......LOL.....Getting close to tackling that pile of wire on the inside of the car......

[kwhizz]

I got the inlet tube welded up and I just need to make and weld in the Mass Air Flow mount fitting..........I also got my Vaporworx fuel pump controller......gonna make a bracket today to get it mounted and get it finish wired up today.......All the wires seem to terminate around the Battery and the one I'm using is both a top post and side post.....makes it a lot easier to tap into for battery power.....the mass of wires look like a mess but when the Battery is in everything falls into place.......Getting Closer....

[kwhizz]

I got the Fuel Pump controller (Vaporworx) all installed and finish wired............It needed to be near the Battery so I made a bracket to mount the module inside the fender right there........worked out pretty good........I was also going to make the mount for the Mass Airflow sensor and after stopping at Frame-up Wheelworks.....Donnie told me that GM has them already made and ready for welding......and he just happened to have one......Lucky!!!!......

I'm absolutely amazed at the speed you get things done. I'll have my Nova there this weekend and pick it back up maybe next weekend? It just needs everything done except setting the 6.0 and 4L80 in. I got that done. Should only take you a few days right? <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif

I'm turning into the absent minded Grandpa..........I lost both Passports somewhere..........Dammmm!!!

[kwhizz]

I got back on the project today and finished the inlet tube with the Mass Airflow sensor mount.....Test fit and ready to go.....I just need to add a fitting for the valve covers venting into the tube.......I'll do that tomorrow and another thing off the list....

I actually spent an hour on the phone this morning going from agency to agency at the Airport and I finally got hooked up with the Customs department ......asked if they had a Lost and Found........after a few minutes it ended up they had the Passports.......Must have fallen out of my pocket and somebody found them and was nice enough to turn them in.........Went up there today and picked them up.......... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

[kwhizz]

Got the air intake tube finished up today........After looking at the way that GM engineered the fitting that connected to the valve cover vents to the inlet tube........It seemed to me it was like a mini chamber so any residual anything would go to the bottom of the vessel......so......I made a mini version out of aluminum for the Vapor to flow thru, I probably made it more complicated than it needed to be ......but.......What's new.....LOL....

[kwhizz]

Well..........Can't put it off any longer......I bought an American Autowire Classic kit....Nice kit but they provide for every conceivable option and variable......so....I have probably 1/2 the wires that aren't going to be used ,.....so.....I have to sort all that stuff out.....First picture is what I started with this AM............the other pic is later in the day.....should have it pretty much sorted out and neatened up in a couple more hours......,.So far.....everything works like it should........LOL

Pile of wires guy!

[kwhizz]

Making a little progress every day.....I have pretty much all the basic wiring in place and fit.....all the loose wires you see left are mostly for all the Dakota Digital senders and sensors.......Looks like a lot but its only a couple of hours to get everything cut, fit and installed.........

[kwhizz]

I have 95% of the wiring completed....Dakota digital senders and modules all hooked up .....I powered up the Vintage Air system and ran it thru it's calibration procedure.......everything worked.......LOL........I just have to finish up wiring up the Radio wiring for the speakers......add the rest of the duct hoses for the A/C and put the dash back in.........I sure wish those wheels would show up..........As it is right now if I put fuel in the tank it should start right up........After the rims get here and I can move the car around ........the last thing is the exhaust system....

[markinnaples]

Wow, you're like a well-oiled machine getting things done. I don't recall ever seeing too many projects come together as quickly and as seamlessly as yours do. Bravo.

[kwhizz]

Everything was going very smooth today.....got all the radio and speaker wires installed......all the loose ends taken care of.......so......I was getting ready to re-install the Dash........In the American Autowire kit there was a new Ignition switch and a new Head Light Switch.......I was going to use the old switch and keep the stock Headlight Knob and pull stem......But.....After checking it seems the switches were wired differently.......Darn.......The Autowire switch had a turned aluminum knob that I didn't want to use.......so .......I took the stock Stem and slid it into the new switch........Cool.....So....I tried to get the stem out so I could install it in the dash............Need I say any more.........Darn......I've been fighting that release button and stem for a couple hours........I give up........Guess I'll have to find out where to get a similar switch......Break this one apart to get the stem out, and this time I won't install the stem until the dash is installed.........Everything just came to a screeching halt.......But.....It was time for a nap anyway......LOL

[kwhizz]

Got it.......But my finger is pretty sore from pushing on that dam button........Did I say I hate those darn things....

So.....I was programming the Dakota Digital controllers today with the correct senders and everytime I would turn the key on to start the programming....The fuel pump would kick on for a couple of seconds.......I didn't have any fuel in the tank and it was running dry......so....I didn't like that so I went and got some Gas for the tank........and as the pump would go on for those two seconds I smelled some gas.....looked around and found a fitting that wasn't tightened all the way.........Fixed it and thought to myself......Hummm!!!......actually this old beater should actually start ........

Getting a lot closer.........Got the Radio all hooked up and installed.......It's the stock AM radio that has been reworked with all solid state insides......AM/FM Stereo and Sirius/XM .......Pretty cool.....The heater/ A/C unit is ready for charging......one problem I had that I knew would be an issue at a later time were the Dome / Console courtesy lights didn't work.....so.....I thought I had something hooked up wrong.......well, today I wanted to get the inside finished up and it was time to deal with that issue.......I had just put some Chinese LED bulbs in those two spots and since they were brand new I never gave it a second thought that the bulbs were no good........LOL.....After checking and replacing the Chinese &quot;Garbage&quot; with regular bulbs everything works just fine.......the only thing that doesn't work out of all the wiring and electrical issues is the console clock bulb..........Got Lucky........Here are some pic's from today.....a long way from a week ago.........The Wheels are finished and are in transit.....so .....we are getting ready for the exhaust system and front end alignment.......

Until the wheels and tires get here .........the car is still sitting on Jack stands..........I've had a major problem I have been chasing for a week and finally figured it out.....After getting the car started and to get the trans filled.......I was going to run the trans thru the gears and get the fluid flowing to set the proper level........as I clicked the car into gear......it started shaking violently.........WTF!!!..........Scared the heck out of me.............I've never had this happen before.......Humm!!!.....I got a brand new driveshaft assy.......Hummm!!!.......So......I start the car again and click it into gear and look under the car.......and the rear axle assy is bouncing all over the place........HUmmm!!!.........So.....I start thinking about it and come to the conclusion that it is driveshaft related..........Now!!!........My drive line angle to driveshaft was a little more than I would have liked so I figured the universals were fighting each other as the pinion angle wasn't set and I thought that maybe I was at that point of nothing was in scync.....So.......I go ahead and raise the back of the trans to get te trans/driveshaft angle down to 3 degree's........Great.........Get everything put back together.....start the car and it still almost shook itself off the jack stands............Shut everything off and get under the car and turn the driveshaft by hand and as it was being rotated it would bind up and after putting some effort into it , it would snap past the bind point and rotate smoothly........did it again and watched the rear axle assy and I could see it moving as the shaft was going thru the &quot;Bind&quot; spot...........Look closer at the rear universal and I noticed that the Universal joint was installed backwards and the raised contoured portion that the grease fitting was installed in was actually hitting the pinion shaft threads........I pulled the driveshaft out and the theads were smashed in about 1/16&quot; .........Duhhhhhh!!!!!..........I got out my little grinder and ground away the contact area.....put the shaft back in ..........started it up and clicked it in gear and ......smooth as silk.........So......I got the drivetrain angle in the &quot;Sweet Spot&quot; and found the problem.....I replaced both universals cause you just never know......Sometimes this car stuff is hard!!!!......LOL

We got back from out trip last night and I was out in the garage at 7am this morning...........Just had to get going again....Before leaving I got the radiator hose situation all sorted out .....It ended up I had to cut up two hoses each to get the shape and bends to come out correctly.......while gone I ordered some Gates Shrink clamps and some radiator hose couplers from Jegs.....That was the first thing I did this morning was to get the hoses put together and get the coolant into the system.........No Leaks......Then I finished up getting the O2 sensors installed along with getting all the wires in place....Then I bled the brakes again and I'm still not happy with the pedal......still feels a little spongy......(I hate Brakes)........then I put the wheels and tires on the car and got the car on the ground for the first time.........gonna let it sit for a couple and then get the coil-overs adjusted correctly..........my hands are Dirty and it's time for a Nap!!.......Here are some pic's from today....

Running out of things to do......I got the loose end wiring all finished up inside the car......I also installed another Dakota Digital module that will feed outside air temp and compass directions to the VHX gauges........and today I made a simple bracket to hold a Catch Can assy to collect oil vapors rather than to feed them back to the Intake and recycle them thru the combustion chambers..........So......The only thing I have left to do is install the speakers in the rear package tray.........Waiting for dry roads to get the alignment and exhaust system completed

I finally got the package tray cut out for the speakers to fit..........It was one of those days........Simple thing....just cut out speaker openings.........LOL.......started at 8am........Get out the little Pneumatic saw (Chinese Made).....started cutting and it kept stopping as soon as it got a little pressure on it.........so.....I decided to go and get some new saw blades with a finer tooth profile...........get the new blades.........go to install one and as soon as I tighten the set screw........the blade cracks into pieces.........try another and the same thing happens.........(The Chinese don't understand Heat Treating or Tempering).....Darn......I dig thru the tool box and find an old one (U.S. made).....put it in the saw and Bingo.....no breakage.....so I start sawing again and then the Chinese piece of crap saw breaks internally..............I get the sawzall out but it's just too big.......Darn.......So......I try my little pneumatic rotary grinder with a carbide Burr in it......Darn......That didn't work either........So.....I drive down to the shop and get my Plasma cutter......get everything arranged and protected and got 1/2 way thru the first cut out and it died on me...........Darn!!......Not a good day so far.......This is supposed to be a non issue and simple..........So.....I go to Menards and buy a new Plasma cutter......get back and 5 minutes later I'm finished......(5 hours and $640 later)..........So......I get the speaker assy's painted to match and get them installed.......Hook up the wires and go to turn on the radio to see how they sound........Hummm!!.....Battery is dead.......WTF..........Hummmm!!!.......everything was fine until I hooked up the existing Chinese made Power Antenna........Humm!!!......I remember that the last time it went up it continued to make a slight sound when it was fully extended..........Check it out.....and it was drawing power when it shouldn't have.........So......I go to Autozone and pick up another Power Antenna.........also Chinese made........go to install it and the way they had it designed with the ferrules and Gaskets there was no way it was going to seal and keep the water out of the trunk...........I ended up taking all the power stuff out and put a manual Antenna on the car........Sheesh!!!

So......The weather was very cold today.....but it was sunny and the roads were dry.....so.....I took the car out for it's first drive and to get the front end aligned.....I was surprised how well the car drove and steered without any concerns for alignment during assembly.........So.....a couple things happened......I get to the Alignment shop......get the car on the rack....and the alignment adaptors that strap onto the wheels were hitting.......the springs settled down quite a bit during the drive.....I told them I would adjust the coil-overs and get the car a little higher and be back next week..........so....as I was getting close to home I noticed there was a trail of white smoke from under the car........Damm........I was almost home so I coasted into the driveway and it seems a trans cooler line broke or split somewhere in the system.......Damm what a mess.....Finally got it in the garage on the lift......I've had enough of the car for a day or two.......Gonna take a two day nap before I get back to it...LOL

It's all good Ken...you'll have it fixed in no time <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif

[kwhizz]

Nap over.....Cleaned everything up and found the issue........I just installed rubber hose for the cooling lines and one of them got pinched between the motor mount and the frame...........On my way to get some hard line and do it correctly this time........Lesson learned!!!!

[Xplantdad]

Told ya....&quot;Lesson learned guy&quot;!

[kwhizz]

More Lessons learned............Do &quot;NOT&quot; use rubber fuel line for transmission cooler line......Ask me how I &quot;NOW&quot; know that!!!!.........LOL.........

[bulletpruf]

Just finished going through the entire thread. Am in awe of your progress and fab skills. Gorgeous car, great build.

Scott

[kwhizz]

A simple issue to pass along for others to not make the same mistake as I did.......I used Fuel line for the transmission cooling lines to the radiator.......after blowing holes in the lines (3 times) and after the last time the car had to be brought home on a Flatbed.....I didn't know really what the Heck was going on.......I called RPM transmissions and after explaining what was going on......he explained that you can't use fuel line for this purpose......It seems the trans fluid attacks and weakens the Rubber used for fuel lines......the trans he built for me has about 300 PSI line pressure when put in reverse and that's why I was having these problems.......It was blowing thru the hose at it weakest point.........So....I already replaced the front section of lines (from the starter forward) with hard lines........and I was going to finish the rest but it seems me and tube benders don't get along.......so after going thru a bunch of hard lines I went and bought some correct trans rubber hose and installed them and everything is now fine........Now maybe I can make it to the alignment shop without the trans line blowing out......LOL.......

On to the last Issue that I had to deal with was setting the pinion angle.....The Ridetech set-up is great .....But.....because of the little extra angle of my engine trans combo when I tried to adjust it using the upper adjustable arms........It just rolled the rear end back into the Coil Overs..........So.....as the lower arms are fixed length and non adjustable.......I talked to the Tech guys at Ridetech (Great Guy's) and what I did was bought threaded Bungs and Rod Ends........So.....we cut off the ends of the lower arms and welded in the new bungs with the adjustable Rod Ends........So.....I figured out the angles and how much shorter the lower arm needed to be and adjusted them and put everything back together.......Bingo........hit it the first time......and when I ordered those parts I also ordered the rear sway bar assy.......so I got everything installed and finished.......Now we just need some dry Salt free roads to get the alignment completed......Get the exhaust system installed.........Get the car to Donnie at Frame-up.......Then off to Stefano at Nickey for the Tune.........

[kwhizz]

A couple of things........I made it to the alignment shop today.....LOL.....I actually didn't blow up any transmission lines.......I guess when you use the right product for the application .......It works......LOL.....anyhow....The front end is now aligned and set up........I also sent out my stock am radio and had it converted to am/fm stereo /satellite Sirius ready.......got everything in and hooked up with Radio Margaritaville ..............great cruising station...........I also ordered an exhaust kit with all mandrel bends and Dynomax #17749 mufflers.....2 1/2&quot; system.........should be here in a couple of days......Good weekend project......The other thing I'm not too crazy about is the brake system.........It was recommended to go with a 7/8&quot; bore master non power system..........well......I'm not very impressed with the stopping power and may be switching to a Power system in the near future.........anyhow......here are some pic's....Time to call Stefano at Nickey and get the old Beater over there and wake it up......LOL

What are the final after alignment measurements,if you have them.

[Xplantdad]

Castor we wanted + 3-5 degrees but we couldn't get that much.........Camber -.5 degrees per side and 1/8&quot; toe........

[Plowman]

So caster was less than +3deg each side.

[jannes_z-28]

You should try some other upper arms then. The &quot;built-in&quot; caster in aftermarket upper A-arms differ between the makers.

On my Camaro I have 8° Caster, a little more than ideal but we couldn't get less due to my Guldstrand mod and the SpeedTech A-arms. It drives really good with it, steady as on rails, but when turning the tires are really close to the inner fenders but they don't hit.

Some A-arms have as much as 5° built in Caster-increase.

I'll give Ridetech a call today and ask about that!!

[kwhizz]

Duhhhhh!!!!.....I talked to Mark Webster today and he reminded me that the Ridetech upper arms have inserts with offset holes for help in setting the Castor.........I forgot all about that feature and had the set to the most neutral position..........Time to take it back and get the inserts changed and get it aligned &quot;Again&quot;.......LOL

Nice!

[CC Rider]

Pipe Guy!

[kwhizz]

I finished the exhaust system and got another Education on Welding.......I finally got the wire feed and voltage dialed in on the last weld........Typical..........But.....In building the other LS powered cars I always seemed to have issues with the &quot;Rappy&quot; sound out the exhaust pipes and ended up changing mufflers a couple times to get away from it..........I think the length of the tail pipes have something to do with it........But.......On this car I bought Dynomax #17749 super turbo mufflers and brought the tail pipes out behind the rear tires........so ....when I started it I didn't know what to expect.........I wanted the quietist performance Muffler I could find...........so.....When I started it........I was very pleasantly surprised at how you could hear the exhaust.....but yet how quiet it was........Perfect!!!........Going down to Stefano at Nickey next week to get the rough edges blended together in the ECM............When I started the build I had the complete ZL1 harness assy........But......because I decided not to use the 6L90E trans we couldn't use the ZL1 harness ........John at Speartech supplied a ECM set up to work with the engine and the 4L70E trans......but....It needed to dialed in to blend everything together......so......Stefano and Cory are going to put the final piece of the puzzle in place.............Then it's going to Frame-Up to get the A/C system charged......83 days till Power Tour.......

I agree...looks great, exhaust guy!

[kwhizz]

I have gotten a couple of requests to hear the &quot;Beater&quot; run with the exhaust system.....so....here is a short video......as you can see until the engine gets tuned it's running Pig Rich!!!..........Driving down the road you can barely hear the exhaust unlike the Flowmaster that I had on the other cars......These are much better and thanks to Samhatco for the Muffler recommendation.....Click on the Picture for Video

OBAMA comes to mind LOL

[TAU]

Ken,
Tenneco/Walker, manufacturers of DynoMax exhaust components, is thankfully one of the few American companies one can truly rely upon for quality parts &amp; service. I can personally attest to their integrity as I've used their 17375 cat-back system on my '95 LT1 Caprice 9C1(now 283,000 miles) since 2001. They've honored replacing their lifetime-warrantied mufflers no less than 7 times, paying shipping as well. It has been my sincere privilege having done business w/such a reputable U. S. company, these past 12 years. I believe Darlene was the very cordial associate w/whom I dealt. A more competent young lady one would be hard-pressed to encounter in today's I-could-care-less business clime. A very professional &amp; astute PR representative of whom Tenneco/Walker should be very proud to have in their employ.

'67 SS bud...

[PxTx]

I have to ask Tau, 7 times it needed to be warrantied? I've got the same milage on my 8.0 liter truck and the stock 3.5&quot; system is still holding up. I'm glad they stand behind their product, but if I had to do that with items I rep- I'm not sure I coild afford to rep them.

Stefano and Cory at Nickey have been very busy and since I'm not really in any hurry to get the car back,.....they didn't get to it until late in the week.........Cory had to install another Bung in the exhaust system for one of the sensors that is needed for the Dyno Computer.......it would have normally gone in one of the rear O-2 sensors Bungs........Then it finally got on the Chassis Dyno but since it was late on Friday.......Cory didn't get a chance to really dial it in yet.........should be a video early next week...........

Cory had a nagging issue to deal with in this pieced together system.....When he would start to get into some boost, the Computer would pull Timing out of the engine and kill the Power......Took a while to figure out that it was the Torque Management system that was killing the power........It took a while to figure out how to get in the proper area of the ECM and turn that particular table off..........Got a call from him just before he was leaving for the day and he finally got to make a pull without losing Timing.........Tomorrow seems to be the day everything gets blended together to work as a balanced system.............

Didn't hear anything from Cory today.........But the first quick pull yesterday with the Timing stabilized.........The car made 480 rear wheel horsepower.........So.....I can't wait to see what it will do with everything dialed in..........These engines just amaze me.......this thing idles like Grandma's car........Hope to have a video tomorrow.....

I just wanted to take a minute to thank Stefano,Cory and Tom from Nickey for their Help and expertise in getting this system blended in and dialed in..........They took a non factory designed pieced together system and got it working as if it came from the Factory that way.........Great &quot;Job&quot; to the Nickey Crew.......

[kwhizz]

Donnie and the guy's at Frame-up knocked the Chevelle out in a day..........The A/C is charged and ready to go........They had to replace one A/C hose that I didn't make correctly and they also replaced the brake pads...........It seem's that after having the rotors plated locally , during the break=in of the pads..........it seems the plating wore off the rotors and embedded itself in the pads and took away the braking power.........after changing the pads you could see all the plating that was embedded in the pads.......Car stops great now!!!

So......After picking the car up from Frame-Up today.....this was the first time I have driven the car after being dialed in by Nickey............LOL..........Un-Freak'in believeable..........This engine is insane as to the power available.........All I can say is GM sure did their homework when putting this combo together......I have driven some high H.P. cars before.......But.......&quot;Nothing&quot; like this........Can't wait for the weather to show up at some time in the future.........LOL
