    n00b

    Just being courteous and introducing myself since I'm new to the site, and fairly new to the LSx based engines.

    I'm Lance, I have an '08 GMC Sierra 1500 z71 and a '67 RS Camaro. I live in the Salt Lake City area in Utah (no, I'm not mormon). I work at the Kennecott Copper Mine as a mechanic on haul trucks, they're pretty much giant Tonka trucks, and yes it's a fun job!

    As far as mods go on the Sierra so far I've shaved all the emblems, tinted the windows and tail lights, 2" rear drop, Magnaflow cat-back that exits passenger side before the tire, HIDs in the headlights and fogs, and a much better stereo system.

    Mods on the Camaro are a bit, well... more intense. I'm still in the process of restoring it, have been for several years, but money and time don't always line up. I'll just keep it simple - it's got a 350ci with about 11:1 compression and a fairly choppy cam, a TH400 trans with 2600 stall, and a 12 bolt with 4.10s out back. There's more to it, but this is an LSx based site so I won't bore you with the details.
