IMO this is what you should get before the shorty antenna.

The shorty antenna is only useful for when you have 12 strippers on the top of your car and they are looking for something to stick into their vaginas. The OEM antenna is just too long, but the shawty gets the job done perfectly!


epic..

Sorry man, but you have to admit its pretty funny.


You would drop your ET more if you went to the bathroom before going on the drag strip than if you put on a shorty antenna.

Ok, to be serious:

I am not an aerodynamics expert so I cannot say if a short antenna will help or not. However one horsepower is nothing. You can gain one horsepower by going on a diet and weighing less. One hp will not make any noticable difference.

Get one for apperance, not performance. You will need a LOT more than that to have even close to a fast balt. However looking around here will get you in the right direction.

I need to put in more hours at the wegmans up the road.
LS stands for luxury sport. You can probably find a high mount spoiler in the classifides since a lot of people sell them. And don't just spend all your time working, get an education too.
