Looking For New Project Car, LS1 a Must... Looking to do single turbo ASAP.
Does anyone know any good LS1 cars out there that have fairly low miles and no problems? The car must be an automatic. If the car has some mods that is okay. I Just don't want a car that has been beat on.
The plan is for a single turbo as soon as I can determine what turbo system to buy and who should install? I want a nice setup that is fairly safe at about #6lbs of boost.......... Any Ideas?
Thanks for any help or information you can give.

I have a stock clutch. It has about 8,000 miles on it and has been sitting in a plastic bag for about 4 years now. You shouldn't need anything more than a stock clutch right? Maybe some driving lessons if you smoked a clutch already.

Since when do clutches biodegrade!?! I thought that they wore out after so many miles not so many years. Dave, I never knew you had an F-Bod until about 6 months ago. Also... I thought that you worked at RamChargers, you guys dont stock clutches?

The clutch has about 50,000 miles on it, and two years of those miles are 350rwhp to over 400.
Send me some cash so I can buy one from where I work, smartass

Uhh... I don't know what else I need to buy for my car besides pushrods. I'm getting them locally though, sorry, cant wait any longer. Otherwise I'd have a parts order for ya to swipe to make some cash off of. Tell ya what, find me a twin turbo kit.
