$12k? you can get a complete Ls7 from GM performance for $13k, last time i checked that was 500hp

[http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category\_10001\_10002\_29419\_-1\_10763](http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category_10001_10002_29419_-1_10763)

and if you were referring to LS2 by "the 400hp version, thats available from GM for $5.5k.

This would make for a great caption contest.

GM really hit the nail with the LSx family. 500 bhp for $12k?

Oops, yes. I was thinking of the LS7 when I quoted the price. So, my point about the $$$/hp IS valid as 500hp NA from the manufacturers I mentioned would be mega $$$.

… like his major has ANYTHING to do with being ignorant. and FYI I recently stopped smoking, get your facts straight before you start to try to BS with me. and whats wrong with Fredonia? At least I go to college and don’t live off my mommy and daddy’s funds… unlike some other posters in this thread. (not you moffitt, I know your a successful business owner)

PS whats wrong with smoking weed? I did it for years, only reason i’m not now is my job… I graduated high school, got into a decent college and have held better jobs then most kids my age… all while smoking copious amounts of marijuana. :gotme:

These threads are all the same. Starts off with a discussion, then personal shit gets thrown around, then everyone backtracks what they’ve said. Are you guys going to do some man-kissing now? Maybe some front to back hugs without pants? Grow up and keep the touchy feely personal crap to OT, not gen. auto.
