I bought this car about 4 months ago completely stock. Less than 2hrs after I got home from the dealership I ordered a Pro 5.0, Trans Am shift ****, Stainless Steel LT Headers and Y-pipe, SLP lid, SLP smooth bellow, and bought a cheap flowmaster catback off a friend.
About a month after all that got on, my tranny took a dump and is now rockin a new LS6 clutch and Level IV RPM built transmission. The time for more power has come and here's the parts I've ordered so far.
Ordered:
-Eibach Pro-kit
-KYB shocks
-LM Motorsports G5X3 cam
-Comp Cams 921 Spring Kit
-Comp Cams pushrods
-Hooker cat-back
-Raptor shiftlight
-LS6 oil pump
Ordering:
SLP U/D Pulley and bolt (will be ordering tomorrow)
^^ Final peice of the puzzle!
I'll also be getting black ZR1's next month, then its time to save up for a new rear end and hope my 10 bolt doesn't break before then!

get ready for that clutch to take a dump too. the ls6 clutch is no better than a stock ls1 in my opinion. First time i took my car to the track w/ long tubes only, and some sticky tires, the first run said bye bye clutch. and the car only had 10,000 miles on it. You probably won't have to worry bout your rear though with it in there.

Ehh, not worried about the clutch. It is a 200 mile clutch (when installed about 3-4 houndred miles ago) but if it does dump its all good because I paid like $50 for it. Plus I'll steel my roommates 02 slave cylinder he has laying around when I pull the tranny.
