The LT1 makes...
...an unexpected visit on Mythbusters in the form of a green t/a  It was a little beat but that doesnt matter. basically they were testing to see if they could heat up a tire until it spontaneously combusts
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rhbdG_7XP70 (its not the whole thing it just aired tonight)
notice how he describes that they are using a "nice powerful car"
Long Live the LT1 w00t w00t!!!

hahah thats awesome. they also had a camaro on one of them..they were testing to see if a moving car can make it into a moving truck like in knight rider.
also they had a corvette on one, seeing if a pig carcass will cause toxic fumes in a concealed area.
