Pretty basic stuff. I was more focused on making it safe and reliable as it's going to my son

black Z06 rims 17 x 9.5 with 275 40 17 hankooks all around

CAI

Magnaflow catback -----I gave up on headers.... the passenger side won...I am a beaten man.

Throttle body bypass

hockey stick side stripes with LT1 logo

I also

replaced the water pump, plugs, wires, optispark, rotors, pads, calipers, belt, hoses, tranny flush and filter, fuel filter, drained diiferential (yeh i filled it back up), passenger window motor

Runs great, drove around a while and what is that little bit of coolant on the ground? Yup, the radiator waved its hand saying it wanted to be replaced too. Why was everything else getting attention and not it? I pick up the new radiator tonight. That's OK, I have some orange paint left over and the mad spray paint guy might strike under the hood again.

I'm also going to take one last look at removing the starter and alternator and attempting to get to the exhaust manifold bolts. If it was going to be my toy, by hook or crook those headers would go on as would a new cam and some head work. But, this thing is plenty powerful for junior.

I know, I'm not the best photographer. I didn't see this glare with my eyes

Not really. My money ran out too fast. I might drag race it a little bit, but my V6 needs a rebuild pronto. But I can't play with that until next winter. I have plans to run a centrifugal supercharger, beef up my T5, and a T-Top conversion. But that stuff is so far out it's funny.
