Rebuild my LS1 with forged components, slap the heads/cam back on and pick up exactly where i left off this year, hopefully not missing gears again. Change out my rear end gears New rims New seats if i sell my current ones Ive only seen one person say their running 10s next year, isnt that usually all you read in these threads? I’m comming out running 10s and they still run 15’s :biglaugh: ---

Probably wont touch the car, thinking of demoding and selling in the spring. Getting tired of spending all my money on it. Could go a lot further with it but the platform sucks. ---

Try to make it through the winter in the S10… If that doesn’t happen, throw a SC or a programmer on my next truck. Buy a Nitto 555 for the bike, and a new front tire, maybe some juice 😉 ---
