Default 1995 Steeda Q car gone to the dark side

Well, the die hard Ford guys will hate us for this one. This is an original factory Steeda Q car. The sbf gave up on life last fall and instead of building a new one, we figured we mine as well put a TT 383 iron ls1 in it. Going to give the Holley HP a shot and see how that thing works. This thing is a true street car that's going to be driven everywhere on E85. The down pipes where interesting to build as it will have full asscesories, 1 1/4" sway bar, and 19" wheels. The trans mount in the pictures is NOT the one that's going in the car, lol, it was just something to keep i in place during fabrication.

Stainless Works headers
PTE Billet 67's
PTE wg's
JGS 60mm bov
3" Stainless downpipes to mufflers to tailpipes
Custom 1500hp a2a IC

What wheel is on the passenger front? I know the rest are sp505 by ccw(I think) but I'm wondering about the lone ranger up front. I like that style wheel.

Car is looking good, btw.

Thank you! This isn't a race so, so technically he's still away from it, lol. However, we have been talking about building him something new for 2013.
