I'm probably forgetting some things
The bad:
AC is not currently working due to the compressor. I bought the car with no AC and put all new components in except the compressor because I was told it was good. AC worked for about a week, now no longer does. I was going to replace it myself but don't quite have the time anymore.
The front bumper shows a little clear coat fading, but the color still looks good, and the targa top is pretty faded but that can be fixed pretty easy with a little buffing.
The other issue is the driver side seat power functions are very slow, needs to have the seat motor replaced. It never really bothered me as the seat will still move and I have never had to move it.
Located in Detroit, MI. Only trades I would be interested in are a CTS-V (v1), G8 GT, bmw 335i or audi s4.
PM me or text 518 3302040 with any questions

-8cc Wiseco 2618 pistons for 11.5:1 CR
TSP h-beam rods
TSP 4340 4" crank
GM 6.0L Gen3 iron block
Mahle h-series bearings
according to TSP, motor should be good to 950HP but should probably have the rings gapped appropriately if switching to nitrous/boost

Great deal, and I'd jump on it in a heart beat, but it's about 2.5 compression points high for what I would do. Good luck with the sale ! When I'm done my build I plan on trading it within a year for a newer corvette or jeep srt8 ðŸ‘ðŸ»

8.5k on the motor but it will go up as it's perfect weather for it so I've been driving it. Trans and rear are stock except for the clutch, and holding up awesome
Haha thanks man, I've have dialed the tune in well on 93 and see no knock but I could retune it on 91 and it would be fine I think. Or run some ethanol and make more power!
