Default My new Trans Am
So this is my new 99 T/A been trying to get a hold of one for years but never been able to afford one..... But finally I traded up for this car its in great condition and a lot faster than the rustangs Ive owned in the past.....

It has....
T56 Swap orig. an auto....
Longtubes
Pypes O/R Y-pipe
Hooker Catback
Short Throw shifter
And its been tuned....

Other than the long tubes hitting on the K-member the car runs awesome could not be any happier....

Welcome to the site. That is a great way to start out with Ls1's. Your car is good looking and has some nice mods already. Congrats on the "new" car.

IMO thats great height. If you want to lower the rear a little bit more. Do the heater hose mod. Theres a write up somewhere here. Drop its like 1/2" i believe?
Dont mess with the front height. Thats perfect.

Clean ride though
