It's also stupid to think all of us want to run in the 8's @ 170 mph. We don't!
..Also , sticks and automatics are already combined in FS, so why not make everyone else "conform" ?
LS1 conversions are very popular now with the magazines and magazine types.
However, bolting in a junkyard 5.3 ,and sticking twin turbos on it, is not what we do here.
Would any of these guys want to get inside an LS1 and spend the money it takes to be competitive? Or, do we need to give them a hp break to bring them in?
Besides, there are plenty of LS1 combos that can be raced right now.
Plenty more that could be added that are "Stock".
