yeah i dont know if im gonna drag mine, i would love to but its in such good shape and i dont wanna ruin it, the only mods im gonna do to it are intake and exhaust, and maybe paint the stock rims black cause they look sweet painted, but other than that its gonna be my little princess haha, luckily ill have the jeep if i feel the need to beat up on something

but yeah they are sleepers, they look so innocent until you hear it take off, i told my buddy "yeah man im getting a vette with four doors and cargo space!" haha

They are LQ4s or LQ9s I believe. (The 6.0 vortec) correct?
Either which way they are still based off the LSx motors and will respond amazing to bolt ons.
