The time has come for me to part with my LS. Overall it's been a great car, and I will definitely miss it. It's comfortable, fast, and pretty luxurious. I think this car would make a great base for someone who wants to make a custom set up, or one who would like to get luxury car for pretty...

From personal experience - Even 89 was HORRIBLE. Took quite a while to get things back to normal. Stick with 91+. -Matt

2000 LS V8 118,300 miles. -Matt

Keep the goal in sight, Lou. :-) Btw, going to datalog right now ;-) -Matt

Guys, lets not go crazy here. First the "dude..whenever I do a custom..." then a "wow, I never thought of that, DUH of course that's what I did" they had a little exchange of words. I don't think either meant to upset each other. Perhaps Lou had a long day. It's the Internet everyone, just...

Awesome! Can't wait to see it when it's done. Are you going to get some video of the first start? -Matt

Two words: Torque management. Ok, I'll elaborate - stock from the factory, the LSes pull a bit of torque when shifting...So, if you were to spray, lift, shift, spray...etc I think you could do it, but Quik LS has run nitrous in his car and would probably give a definitive real-world...

1987 Nissan 200SX SE V6 - Same V6 as 300ZX, 300 LBs lighter ;-) Fun car, but it was just too old, and things just started going when I started driving it a lot...Once the (pretty much) whole braking system went, then it was time for it to go. Now I have my 2003 Mustang SVT Cobra, and my...

I own an 03 cobra, so I like the torque ;-) I was referring to the Jaguar S-Type R...Dunno how I missed that. I thought I had typed it, apparently not. -Matt

Well, we have 10.75:1 or so (or is it 10.55?) on the LS's engine...From what I remember, the CR is around 9.1:1 or so...So while we're at a disadvantage...they pump 13 PSI @ 9.1 to 1...so I dont see a problem with 8 PSI or so at 10.5...I think we'll see Quik's doing around 390 - 400 crank hp...

Fittment issues? Perhaps you should look at the rest of the Ford line. Hell, even my "SVT" Mustang Cobra has PLENTY of fittment problems, much worse then the LS. Ford = Functional, but not necessarily fitting together in all the right ways lol. -Matt

I think I found it for $104. Dealer? Hah. They said it was the trunk weatherstripping (which, did need replacing, but wasn't the cause of this)...I had 3" of water in the trunk when it rained for like a week straight. That is fixed thankfully. I should have my new coils / boots, and taillight...

Welcome to the club! Lemme guess. Right rear. Buy a new one. :-( -Matt PS I did try sealing mine. No dice. Sucks, doesn't it?

Of course. IAT must be relocated to after the supercharger / supercharger + intercooler. -Matt
