Anyone who has owned does own or driven an LS1 or similar power.
IM asking if this is too much power ? Is traction too hard to acquire ? I dont really want a burnout queen, if ya know what i mean |

Hey since we are on the topic with LS motors, my winter project is retrofiting a LS4 into my 914. I will build a engine cradle that will bolt to the original engine mounts. I was planning on using 2" square tubing, would I be okay with using 1/8" square tubing or would it be better with 1/4" tubing? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)
