Default Re: LT5 383?

Love Paul's statement

You've never experienced the torque curve of a DOHC motor, have you? Once you do, you'll likely notice how "peaky" any SBC really is!
I agree 100%, driving an LT5 is very different experience. Probably the single best mod I've done to mine was a shift lite, otherwise I'm constantly wanting to shift it too soon, and you really don't want to do that. All the fun is being able to spin it out to redline.

I also agree 200% about not having your local speed shop do it. Do NOT let anyone that doesn't really know the LT5 touch it for modification work. Pete and Haibeck are both reasonably close to you, and should be your first choices. Heck, I had my car trailered from Dallas to Chicago for Pete to work on it, and would do it again in a heartbeat. I have a local shop I can trust to things like AC repair or standard C4 stuff, but the LT5 is just too rare for any wrench monkey to work on it.
