Oh, whats up with those wheels man?
power i couldnt tell you since its going to be in a 4l80. as long as it runs the numbers i dont care. its a street car p/s and white prada leather seats . i only took the abs and ac out because it will be way easier to work on and the biggest reason, i would rather it look way cleaner and nicer when you pop the hood.

the wheels are stock. they only came on 1999 30th anniversy cars.

What type of manifold is that? Looks like a normal LS6?
yea i sold the old one and bought a ls6 just to color match it.

Well the car will most likely be making power and used for drag racing which is why you want an auto for consistency.

I can not exaggerate the importance that if you're going with studded caps,mains,heads, make sure the threads are IMMACULATE
