Some unbelievable rides here man. :inlove:

Mine was just your run of the mill LS swap/truck motor.. wasn't anything too impressive from that standpoint but it was a completely rebuild short block from LQK with the cam added. I believe the guy ran it too lean and killed it. When he was here checking it out the day he bought it, he kept asking me about gas mileage because it was going to be his daily. I told him I really didn't know as I had build it as a toy and wasn't my main driver. We stayed in contact for a bit after he took it home, and he had mentioned a few times that he was messing with the fuel curves to try to get the gas mileage up. I was a shame.
I don't get why anyone would be tryin' to run an LS lean.

My brother's LS2 in his new ride gives him the same mileage as his previous car, a Holden (Chev) Commodore with a 6-cylinder Eco Tech motor. For one thing, the huge torque of the LS range means you need not rev 'em out often.

I do upholstery for old cars. Post some pics when have it done. I also have a 2.4 Targa of the same color to do... when the customer show up with some cash :D
 
Using my MacBook Pro, I did a mock-up on what my 50th Anniversary Challenger would look like with MOPAR Demon wheels. The vintage MOPAR Rallye wheels are my personal preference, but they aren't available in modern 115x5 bolt pattern. Getting 15" wheels to fit is another story entirely.
