Do you per chance mean a 2002 collectors edition?
or are you referring to a 30th anniversary 1999 anniversary trans am?

lol. mustang was not my first choice; dont get me wrong i love it and its badass and fast and sounds awesome and looks nice ETC, but doesnt have the charm or the raw musclecar-ness of the Fbody.

I heard that!!!
well if you have a 3.4 you had a diff front end, they do make the w68 package for your year but it is slightly diff than mine, and i assume its the same price as mine. Luckily mine came with the package, but another guy i talked to wanted my kit and he said at a dealer its 1800 bucks UNPAINTED, so figure over 2000 for the kit. and NOBODY else makes the kit.
about the mods, i just have a full catback exhaust, k and n, lower gears, shaved lid(making it basically the same as aftermarket lid) Free Ram air mod also removed air intake baffles and put a custom pipe in its place.. none of those aftermarket air intake mods can be done to your 3.4 however. You just have to either make or buy a CAI to put in place of your stock intake. And also im putting together a powerdyne kit to go on the bird shortly

The LS1 cars do have a presence, especially Trans Ams.
