Tune:
Car was tuned by Comp Cams Brian Brannen on a dyno @ Spectacle Solutions
(He also built the motor and cut the cam for it at Comp Cams )
Base tune was done by him , 415 rwhp , 375 rwtq
Car was then handed over to Tony Duncan
Tony Duncan is a GM big wig tuner , he does tuning for General Motors and is probably one of the best in the buisiness. From what i also understand he does all the tunes for Street & Performance too.
Tweeked to 425 rwhp 386 rwtq if you figure 15% drive train loss thru the stall and 3.73 gears the motor is @ the 500 + mark )

Interior
Dark grey
No modifications - nothing painted or any tuner crap like that
inside is pretty clean but is showing some age being 15 yrs old now
Leather seats front and rear
everything works though
12 disc cd changer and tape player
all 6 speakers were replaced
fronts are infinity , mids are kicker, rears are nos all hooked up to the monsoon amp ( sounds pretty damn good if i may say so )
a/c is ice cold ( flushed n refilled this summer )
heater is great
rear defrost
power rear views
power windows , motors were replaced 2 years ago both sides
power seat
delay wipers
ect...

I have had the car at the track 2 times total of 5 runs:
both times were right after tunes / Memphis motorsports park in the summer heat n humidity - ( before it closed down )
2 passes the first time ( with base tune ) best was 2.3 60's / 12.7x @ 113.xx iirc ( street tires is reason for the horrid 60's )
3 passes the second ( with present tune ) best was 2.2 60's 12.5x @ 115.xx ( again street tires )
I weight 250 pds and car had a full tank of gas and is full interior.
On a dot street or a slick definatly a 11.xx second car.
Could be a 10 sec street car on spray
Car has never had a sticky tire on it or spray.

The bad:
The car has some parking lot dings and scratches , nothing bad especially for its age. all are very minor and could be easily fixed.
The drivers side seat has just recently started to have a small tear. I patched it so it will not get any worse , buts its there. Its in the usual spot and there was no foam lost.
passenger side seat has a small hole in the seat , not bad but there , its between the little pinholes very common - this is from my kids child seat. he rides with me everywhere being a single parent and just another reason I dont drive this car much anymore.
the lights in the head unit for the cd player dont work at night, 2 of the little ***** are broken but the ***** still work and function perfectly. I always wanted to replace it with something else but be able to retain my 12 disc changer.
Car had some factory racing stripes , ugh , hood was replaced, spoiler was replaced , but the top center section of the car I did my best to remove them without damaging the paint , but there is still some sign of them being there. ( you probably would not have noticed if i hadnt said anything but im trying to be 100% on everything here. )
Rims - they were not very pretty which is why i plasti dipped them - i didnt want to hide that fact and the new owner take the dip off and be suprized. they were silver painted and they just didnt look good. the plastidip makes them look perfect - and the black looks good with the rest of the car.

KBB says cars wirth 5,700 stock with mileage and fair condition - I believe this car is in better then fair condition and the drivetrain having less then 30000 plus the new trans and yank converter both with less then 600.
I have well over 10k in upgrades
Over 3k in appearance and paint ( hood, spoiler,rims ect.. )

8000$

Im not looking for any trades , Im just wanting to have the cash to finish off my 67 camaro lturbo ls swap car.

Yes I have a lot more pics
I can email them to you if you would like.

I have most of the paperwork for the entire car since Ive had it , most of the major parts.
I can also get you in touch with the builder who will verify the motor build, cam , tune , heads, push rods dyno ect... since all were purchased through his shop here locally in Memphis ,TN
I can also get you in touch with the transmission builder who will verify the warranty.

More information on the bottom end? Crank, rod, piston, ring specs and manufacturer? Or is it stock?

Bottom end is all stock GM parts.
Only part replaced upon tear down was the rings
Bearings were perfect , pistons - rods perfect
cylinder walls were perfect.

The builder said it was the cleanest 100k+ block he'd ever seen , and he had known me for years prior and said for all I was going to do with the car there was no sense wasting money on anything else.
