The boy bought his first car.
A couple of weeks ago my son bought himself his first car. I've had to refresh my memory on all things LT1.

A very small cam, SLP CAI, and a cobbled up exhaust. He's looking into a set of headers and a full exhaust. It's a '95 6-speed car that's in pretty good shape.

I thought I saw him in our neighborhood today, it was a silver car and definitely a 6 speed. It sounded good.

Yeah, He's all about the area over by you. He's a kid with a hot rod and a decent job. He has money for gas! LOL.

A little update... The clutch went out a couple of weeks ago. So, while the car was down, a new Spec Stage 2 clutch was installed. Also, a set of Speed Engineering long tubes, and true duals out the back. It is a little bit louder and a little bit quicker.

He's been accepted to RIT and starts in the fall. He's a grown-ass man.

The clutch has been great! He has no complaints and I wouldn't say he has been kind to it. Smooth as silk in parking lot maneuvers.
