I have done a tonne of research on the
SLP and LS1.com BB's but wanted to get
a few more opinions from a few club members.
I would have to say from what I have read
an average gain on a bolt on car is between
12-20 HP. How is the seat of the pants feel?
I don't really care about the common complaints-(headers hanging low, difficult
installation and #'s compared to other long tubes) all I want to know is if you
have them do you regret buying them. Thanks
alot guy's.

I heard the other day that you should expect problems with bolts coming loose, blown header gaskets etc. I know this was the case years ago, anyone have experience on this now?
