oh for ***** sakes... here we go.
miller whatever brand or model you bought, go to that forum. noone here cares. take a hint.
im sure alot of us could buy or build a car that could give exsoccer a run for his money if we were interested in changing our priorities or blowing money on a car. what's your point?

i have a feeling the car isn't even his yet. he definately would have posted a picture to brag by now. im guessing the sale may fall through and he'll look like a jackass.
regardless, noone cares.
it's probably not even a driveable car. it's a shell with a big motor that will probably blow up after a month of owning it.

Car is diffently his me and him have already ran motor to motor. We are a very close run. Not sure if its a 5.3 or 6.0. He was told it was a 5.7 which it is not. its iron block not alumiium. It does for sure have 243 LS6 heads which he was told were ported. a cam, LS6 intake manifold , varaaram intake, exhaust. I daily drive my charger.

LOL sorry that was a reply to the 350Z owner saying his car is slow because its a daily. Not saying my car is fast cuz its not but its decent for what it is. with the damn LS motors they look so much alike when in the car its hard to tell. Thats the problem with buying a car already modded u gotta trust the other guy. Apprently it had nitrous on it too. Upon further inspection found a swich panel in the center consol for im sure a bottle heater and acitvation switch. Car runs good though doesnt make any noises so we shall see. He told me today he had a shop check the VIN and its still a 5.7L but had too very trusted LS chevy guys say last night it was iron block so IDK. I am pretty curious. Previous owner told Miller it put down 425 WHP i think it was on a dyno which is healthy for a H/C/bolt-ons LS1 car using GM OEM parts.

personally i would never buy any car that has had a nitrous setup on it.
maybe it made 425whp with a shot? doesn't sound like it would be that fast.
what does your charger run in the 1/4? mid to high 12's?

i hope he didn't pay too much. i wouldn't spend any kind of money on a car without doing my research and having it checked over first before i buy it. especially if it was modded.

The 350 is quick enough for a car that gets me to and from work everyday. I bought it to have something fun and reliable not brag **** how quick it is. I have another car for that lol

on motor it went 13.1@111. If it only makes 425 on nitrous thats sad having heads and cam full boltons too. 400 WHP is diffently possible with heads cam and bolt-ons on the 5.7. The LS6 heads flow quite better than the 5.7 heads and he said they are ported more than factory.Of course if thats a hilbilly garage port job by someone who half ass knows what they are doing it itsnt going to help much. He only payed 4k for the car so pretty cheap.

The PO said it dyno'd 425 whp on motor, which most do 400-450 whp with heads/cam anyhow. But idc about that number.
It is an LS1, I am having it dyno'd next Saturday....
I did beat an ls1 swapped rx7 last night, talked to them after.
I have 2.73's from an auto swapped in, so 1st goes to 60. Luckily he did 40 roll which is perfect in 1st gear. I got him by half a car to a car, great race.
It is relatively low mileage ls1 car, 100k miles.
Yes I know it's a risk, one could argue it's cheaper and more effective to make parts work together rather then go through and buy all of them then try and then make them work together.
I have had 3 other fellow knowledgeable F body owners(who basically have heads/cam and bolt ons like me, but did it themselves) look at it and they have told me I got a good deal for how much I payed.

and yet still no pictures.. 100k miles? low? hmmm... your opinion of high miles is different than mine.
i wouldn't buy a car at or near 100k miles. but good price i suppose.
