Met my buddy whom I mentioned earlier at a car lot today to check out a 2002 SS and give him an insight into my extensive 4th gen knoledgebase

LOL

It's an 02 SS, Sebring Silver, 6spd Hurst equipped,hardtop, 60K miles, and cloth interior. I went with them on a drive, car runs awesome! I sure hope he gets it

Notice my SS in the background, hood and hatch opened

Thats a good looking car. Really love the black stripes on it. If I would have gotten the silver one I was looking at I wanted to do black 35th Anniversary stripes on it.

I'm still deciding whether or not I want them.. If i got them then we would REALLY have matching cars :p

Not necessarily; his might just be a lot rarer. That is a hardtop SS right there, and with an M6 to boot.
Might even beat yours out, BW...

As far as SS's go here in Montana, they're almost always hardtops. Out of all the Ones I've seen around the state mine is the only on I've seen with ttops and I've seen one 35th LE vert. Hardtops are more desirable here because of the weather we have.

Congrats Winter's I'm happy to see you are making progress with
your Camaro! The LM1 catback should sound nice and loud.
From the dyno sheets I have seen the TSP 224/224 and 228/228
cams are really close in performance and should work well with stock heads.Plan on doing all the supporting mods with either of these cams
to be safe.I really like your planned mods it should be fun!

It really should be fun! I definitely do plan on doing all the supporting mods, not just those for the Cam, but all the little bultons.

It's 1 AM here and i just got off work.. Tomorrow (my day off) I have to work at 5 AM.. so that gives me just about 4 hours of sleep

i hate working for my dad, I never actually get to have my days off, off!

however, when I get off at 1 I'm going straight home, lifting my SS, and removing the stock Catback so that as soon as my LM gets here I'll be ready to put it on

I'll have pictures and videos tomorrow if everything goes as planned

I told you...I payed off UPS and your LM1 is in my garage.....muhahahahaha

We'll just see about that!

Bulldogwinters · 07-13-2011, 04:03 PM

In the middle of removing stock exhaust.. taking a break at the moment.
I'll attatch some pictures

(and a video once it's done uploading)

I'm curious though, does anyone know what brand shocks were used on the standard SS without the Eibach Billstein suspension? my car has edelbrock shocks, I just wanna know if those are aftermarket or factory installed

naw, its a LM1 and I want an LM2 so I made the UPS guy pay me back double and sent yours on its way!

im going with the dual duals too, they look nicer then i thought!

Bulldogwinters · 07-13-2011, 07:47 PM

I think the dual duals or the 4" tips look the best..

Well everything's all installed, I'll update this with a video as soon as it uploads
