Hi Kent !
Maybe you start a thread in the "marketplace" (marktplatz) forum here,
and see if any member can help you.
Is the LS-1 a corvette engine ?
Then I would suggest that you also check out the www.corvetteforum.de ,
registering there is as easy as here.
Thinking about that kind of project :
Do you have to comply to german vehicle registration rules ?
I think there has been a change of politics, and getting such a project on the (german) road is not as easy as it used to be,
even with US license plates (HK or AD).
If you want to have a go at the quartermile :
unfortunately, the number of dragstrips in germany cannot compare to sunny California,
I think the nearest would be Bitburg,but you must wait till the 08 season starts,
info at www.1on1-motorsports.de .
The other dates can be found in the "Termine" section on this board.
Good luck with your project,
Benni
