Has built top end, heads, cam, injectors, tune, fast 92 throttle body and intake manifold, volant CAI, hooker long tubs to Y and magnaflow.

Other than its stock trans, stock rear end 3.42s, so no racing right now, just cruising.

My guess this car will put down somewhere around 400-450rwhp/tq depending on dyno. Its got some balls but its nothing like my last TA.




I did the inside and outside of car when I got it home, engine bay is going to a professional next week.

Is that the garage at your house? It looks massive!
[Reply]

Yes that's my garage at my house. It is pretty massive for me especially when its not full of clutter, 880 sq feet. I am going to park the T/A in one side and my Honda behind it, then my Focus on the other side, plus 1/4 of the garage for junk, toys, bikes etc.

A huge reason why I bought this house~

That's bigger than multiple apartments I've lived in! :-)

Would be nice to have that, even just to store shit.

Nice ride and good find.

Highly recommend ditching the AA wipes for something like 303 Aerospace.

My FIL gave me some of this stuff and this is in there. What would I use it on?

And yea, fuck that greasy Armor-all shit. Stuff is nasty.

99 Trans Am (not a WS6) with 160k, but like any ls1 car the motor has been built for only about 20k, also got chromoly pushrods about 13k ago.

Got up at 7am and drove to Iowa yesterday, got it home just before dark, got it cleaned up etc. Tonight is the real test, its going to get an inspectiona nd window motor today while im at work, then its going up on the rack tonight and im really gonna see what I have to fix.

6 grand for the car, and the guy had 6 grand in motor parts receipts alone.

Charged the A/C already this morning and it does work just like the guy said. So far so good.

Ahem.



I have seen deer literally explode when hit with one of these. Then you just drive to the car wash.
Just don't get the stinger type, they will knock the deer down and it can get tangled up in the undercarriage. That happened to Gearhead Wrenching buddy.

There are getting to be a lot more smaller diesel options and turboed gas options out there that intrigue me.

All that being said, I bought a 2010 GMC With 19,000 miles on it this winter and couldn't be happier. I didn't want to drop the cash on a depreciable asset that I'm pretty hard on but it is a good pickup.

JMO on the pickups.

Jujitsu Instructor buddy is pretty please with his Chevy, it's a 4 door with the 5.3 LS based engine. He works it pretty hard too. Doesn't drive the country roads like you but his business is cutting and installing stone counter tops so besides being his daily driver he's constantly dragging a trailer around with stone slabs on it.

Just had em in the garage, the interior in the car is 9.5/10 and they shined it up pretty decent.
