Ah, Bessie. That's what the former owner called this beauty. 270k miles on the clock. She's a good 'ol girl. The A/C still works. We got started quickly on it, but this whole "trying to run a business" thing got in the way. Then we started building Scooter's car. Luckily, Bessie gets the motor yanked as soon as Scooter's car goes to headers.
What is it?
We want to further test our LS1 kit buy building a SCCA classed X Prepared car with the kit parts. Now, on top of that we don't have a bunch of money to spare so we'll need to do it on the cheap. X Prepared has interesting rules. The weight is displacement based. We'll start with a junk yard 5.7L LS1 motor and try to match the 2390 pound weight limit. If we get there, we might go for 5.1L and 2270 pounds. TBD at this point.
