    An Old "New Guy" - LOL !

    Guys,

    My name is Dave and I am an "old, new guy" on the forum. I'll be turning 50 this summer and am getting back into cars after a 24 year "vacation" (marriage has a way of killing hobbies, especially when you are young ), but my wife says it's OK for me to have a "toy" now . . .

    I belong to several other forums and have been trying to "catch up" on the technology.

    Being "old school", I didn't like the LS motors, at all. However, after a lot of research and the help of others, I now realize just how superior they really are . . . Live & Learn !

    Thanks !

    Dave

    Welcome to LS1 Dave you will like it here. I agree the LS motor is like no other motor.

    Welcome to the site, Dave!

    I had around a 10 year 'vacation' myself. I came here for the same reason and never left It's a great site and has very helpful members that are more than happy to answer any questions you may have.

    According to the "Posting Rules", I am not allowed to post attachments. I assume that will change after I have been here a while ?

    just what we needed....another old fart. Just messing with you and I'm not that far off.

    Welcome to the site and I think everyone realizes after a while how much of an improvement the gen 3's are over the gen 1 and 2. They make tons of power, are pretty much bullet proof, and are very efficient. Mine has 98k on it, runs 11's, and I can run the a/c on the way home from the track. Never figured my gas mileage because it's not something I worry about on that car but I would be it's in the 20's on the freeway or close to it.
