need an opintion...As of right now, there are no markings on the car. No trans am on the side, or ram-air stickers or any kind of badges.... I have a silver "383" decal that i had made...(I won't include the 'stroker' part of the decal) that i like but am not sure if i should put it on or not. So my question is to see what you guys think. Yes or No, and if yes, which side (on the back) Thanks!

I'd put it on the back, that way people can figure out what happened as you pass! LOL!

No, no dyno numbers yet - need to put a few more miles on before that.

Man, leave all the decals and markers off. people will roll up like, "Oh, it's just an LT1." Then you blast the living hell out of them.

Oh my god. Dude, if you ever, EVER, decide to sell that, PLEASE LET ME KNOW

Sweet build man. Especially the sleeper look. I like the idea of a single '383' and no other words/badges anywhere.

All i know is that it's fast. I can't keep the tires stuck to the ground to save my life. I don't think i've put enough miles on it yet to have it go to the dyno, it will get tuned a bit more (I think) and then have all the fluids drained and re-filled. So i'm looking forward to seeing the numbers - but i don't need to see numbers to know that this car makes a Porsche 911 turbo look like a honda civic on the highway - i mean complete embarassment! Haha.
