Congrats, has to have felt pretty good for him to want to review your car!

The video that followed it on youtube was titled "6 cars you should never LS Swap," haha.

Nice video! It does take some trust to let a stranger drive your car on a damp road on cold slicks :)

Sweet car man!  Was giddy when I saw the video of the LS swapped FC.

Currently putting mine together.  Curious to know what intake that is?  Custom?  I am planning on doing the same for mine, because that is a prime area to get some cold air.

Lots of questions....

I really like how quiet it is.  just magnaflow mufflers?

Also, what cam do you have?

For sure seeing how well your ride did, inspires me.  :)  Props again on the sweet ride, and great review from Matt.

Thanks!

My build thread is here, all of your questions are answered

http://www.norotors.com/index.php?topic=2929.0

The intake setup is custom fabbed, but you can do something similar with a C6 Corvette air bridge and keep the core support.

The mufflers are 6 in round, 3 inch in/out, 18 inch body Mangaflow mufflers, with longtubes, and x pipe and 3 inch piping all the way back.

The cam is a GM ASA cam. It is pretty mild by today's standards.

I enjoy watching his videos and the video on your car. I don't think I have ever heard him say that he liked the steering of a car he was driving.
