Neither here nor there, but here's an LS3 story....

Afew weeks ago, I met a guy with a Lotus 7. I noticed that he had an LSx under the "bonnet". I asked him what it was and he told me it was the LS3 crate motor with the hotter cam - 480 horsepower.

I said, that this car couldn't weigh more than 2000 pounds. He said 1600 to be exact.

I said WOW, 1600 pounds and 480 horsepower. After a pause he said; " Yeah, when you hit the gas, you'd better be paying attention".
