Nice vids! but poor tires
Do you have any mods done to the car? Shifting at 7k seems a little high to me; I try to shift around 6500.

Sounds good but still pulls like stock no? I love white. Looks so clean with the chrome wheels...

I think you need to put mufflers on it.
Remember - loud doesn't equal fast.

Acceleration looks slow

I have to agree...I think of the LS as a more refined automobile.

Refined is a bad choice of words i would say... yea its a nice car but far from refined...
I had the cluster out a while back. ever since the tach has been reading wrong. I also have oil in all 8 spark plug holes with multiple misfires. working on VCG, plugs and coils...
I hope it is lacking acceleration

No offense intended. I have thought about installing Magnaflows but I don't want my exhaust to be too loud.
The LS was originally marketed to 35 - 50 yr. olds to compete with the BMWs and MBs.
Sorry to hear about your luck with the 3.9. How many miles do you have on it?

My pappy said, "Son, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' ... If you don't stop drivin' that - Hot ... Rod ... Lincoln!"

The best thing about the LS is that you have no need to upgrade the factory diameter of pipe work so all you need is to toss a nice set of mufflers in line.
I still don't get the straight pipes in this day and age. All I think about is Keep On Trucking with a pack of Marlboro's rolled in your shirt sleeve sitting behind the wheel of a primed Mopar.

Just because I have that in my "sig" doesn't mean I don't have a heavy foot.
When I was younger I had a '66 Mustang, '84 Z28 and a '90 Mustang GT 5 Spd. to name a few. At an earlier age I liked loud...not "straight pipes" but I wanted to be heard coming and going.
My car is my personal car but I also use it to take clients to lunch, golf etc.
When you're dealing with C-Level Clients, loud isn't good.
