> [@Hooked on BMW](#): > > i know but chevy\>ford especially ls1 yup, you are impressionable for sure. you just go with what everyone else says… 1998 GST, 144k, 5 speed “new” head… do a compression check, check the timing on it, make sure all gears work without grinding, make sure the engine runs smooth. look for any signs of wiring issues… DSM’s can destroy your bank account. 1500 for that sounds suspect to be honest. ---

dont buy a dsm. You honestly would have better chances buying a LS integra and throwing a 100shot on it. ---

lol for me or you? :mwahaha i think a gst runnig right (uncommon) would beat a gsr w/ cams, and is more easily modified. But then again, they blow up and gsr’s are pretty damn reiable. so pick your poison.
