    P.S. I apologize in advances about the jizz stains but, it's going to happen.
    hahahah thank you!

    its a cream with white pearl, the pearl seems to dominate the color in certain lights. The color is nice in person, but it's a color that seems to create a problem when taking photos.

      Even better I tend to have some iridescent qualities.

        okay so seven for ls, and two for the 455.
        looks like the ls and 455 will cost the same to do. a turbo ls will give me a nasty sound and plenty of hp, but the 455 has more torque. The mileage on the ls kicks the 455's ass, but the 455 just looks right.
        keep the advise coming.

          LSx, if you want good power/$$$ ratio. With the right cam/heads you'll make the same if not more torque than the 455, and cheaper, and more power also.
          Way more fun can be had cheaper, even though a 455 would be cool its just not worth the effort if its for fun/going fast

                I'd love to find out it's worth that much though.
                Sorry, my fault. Thought you wanted to cut up one of these, they are worth big money...

                          There's one In the area, runs 7s at the track and it looks like a daily driver.

                          Dead reliable, awesome mileage and turbo charged, not to mention all the torque you could ever ask for.

                            BTW - it will never be "fast" nor particularly sporting to drive. Low and slow, man...

                                I met him once. My car is much cleaner than his. But his still kicks ass. I just don’t want to drop that kind of coin on a swap. I looked for a Cummins a while back, it was my first idea for a non 455. But GOOD GAWD they don't come cheap!
