A little off topic, but for those Blues fans that are not familar with Albert King, here's a pretty good 1970 video from The Fillmore of Albert performing. I've always thought that BB could have taken some lessons from Albert!!

Pete, your recipe is kinda familiar...it mirrors pretty closely a stillborn venture, Fall '09, using a GMPP "crate" LS7/Tranzilla/AR & SW exhaust/adapted CTS-V driveline & fr. brakes/ACS hood/forged 19s with PS2s/GMHPV-suggested suspension...
Can you bring it home, as a "Base" version, south of $60? |

BB King was a mover and a shaker who had so much influence on our music that quite a bit of the R&B and R&R history can be attributed to his influence. You hear it over and over in testiment from many past and contemporary recording artists. An American Icon, like the Z-28!

Today I had the chance to drive another 2SS with an LS7 conversion in it, and the first thing I want to tell you guys AND GM is the Camaro really ROCKS with the LS7 in it !! What a cool car !!
Now a question for everyone. This car was an automatic. I beleive the automatic had no mods, I don't know about any tuning for the trans. If there was, I'll say it was just basic performance tuning to match the LS7. Do you guys think the stock automatic will hold up in the long run to the power the LS7 puts out or will it quickly become the weak link in the drive train when things start breaking ? |

The rules of the OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car Challenge prevent us from running Bridgestone RE-11s so we went with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s and the best available size.
