finally a TRUE ls1tech member!! ws6 for the win well...after a long weekend of delayed flights, canceled flights, re-routed flights, and 23 hours of driving up the east coast, I am proud to announce I now own a 1999 WS6 
No better way to get to know your car then driving it for 23 hours. Mods as listed by the seller when purchased
Performance mods include
Lid
LS6 Intake
Ported Throttlebody
Comp Cam 224/230 581/592 114LSA
SLP LT Headers
SLP Ypipe
Flowmaster Catback
Spec Stage 3 clutch
New motive 4.10 gears
Rebuilt 10 bolt
Appearance mods Include
Black Bird Hoodstripe
Clear side markers, Painted CETA
Black bird on front
Lowered 2"
Tinted windows
White Gauges
Chrome AC Rings
Removed side molding
Removed TransAm lettering on Door
When I arrived back in New Brunswick I had the coolant flushed and one of the exhaust pipes replaced. There was a small hole on one of them. This weekend I was working on migrating my audio over from my other car and am thinking about tackling the fiberglass stealthbox some night this week.
Now my only concern is how low the car is, I would really like to raise it an inch at least...what would be my best bet? Purchasing 1" lowering springs or going back to stock? Im worried that stock wouldn't look as great, but also worried that 1" might not be enough clearance.
What does everyone with black wheels use for polish? I can't seem to find something that cooperates with my wheels.
Anyway...I F*$$$#$ing love this car...sounds great, bites good, nuff said.
