Hey Hamed , chill man.

I see that u already got headers , right ?

If you gave away those headers , then I recommend you 2'' kooks headers .

For the T56 , give RPM transmission a call and they'll do their best to help you .

Please be safe, that is a dangerous weapon to put in the hands of an inexperienced driver.
Good luck with the build!

Well, The problem is shipping those parts from USA all around the world to Kuwait. So I have to pay almost double the part's price.

eg. It costed me aroun 550$ for shipping the TFS heads.
320$ for shipping the headers.

Not to show off.. This money comes from our country.....

Kuwait's gas price and currency never changes
Because we have an simple economey "just sell the oil at one price per gallon"

Japan is the next step, they buy the oil from us....

Japan then sell's the oil to America and takes a "PROFIT".

Most 16 year olds, my son included, would not have a 17th birthday with a 427 powered F-Body. Life expectancy for 16 year old on 1000 cc sportbike is similar and probably also short.

You have a lot going for you, exercise some judgement and live a long & healthy life.

Thank you! well I'm not a crazy driver..
It's just a nice thing that you wake up from a long sleep and see you'r 427 trans am through out the window and drinking you'r coffee at 8 AM LOL ;p

Street racing begins when you see an Shelby Mustang trying to mess out with you while you having a cigarette and the only thing the mustang would see is the Trans Am's Tail light

San Diego is what I call my second home, I also spent some time at San Mateo california , It's a nice and a quite place... "God bless Kuwait and America"

Yes, 427 trans am can be a handful for teen especially on the streets with other drivers. I hope you be careful. Nothing to play with. Good luck with your project.
