Default It's official

The car is a 2000 SS with 46k on the clock, white with hardtop, M6, Monsoon, black/tan interior.

Mods:

KOOKS LONGTUBE HEADERS
MAGNAFLOW CAT-BACK
G2 SUBFRAME CONNECTORS (WELDED NOT BOLT-ON)
G2 PANHARD BAR
G2 CONTROL ARMS
G2 DRIVE SHAFT SAFETY LOOP (1/2 INSTALLED)
DIRECT FLO AIR BOX W/K&N FILTER
BMR STRUT TOWER BRACE
PRO 5.0 SHIFTER
CAGS
Z06 CLUTCH W/SLAVE
160 THERMO
AUBURN DIFF (3.42'S)
DIFF COVER
MSD WIRES
NGK PLUGS
T/B BYPASS MOD
A FEW NEW GEARS AND SYNCHROS (WARRANTIED BY DEALER)
KYB SHOCKS UP FORNT (NOT OUT BACK)
POLY SWAY BAR BUSHINGS UP FRONT
HARDENED PUSH RODS (DON'T REMEMBER BRAND, STOCK SIZE)

I'm sure I forgot something since I'm trying to remember everything from past conversations.

The guy kept every record/receipt and mileage check imaginable. Absolutely fanatical, I thought I was bad but I got a spread sheet of everything done from day one when he drove the car off the lot.

The car has been dyno'd three times. Stock it made 306.5hp / 311.2tq , w/the airlid & throttle body bypass it made 325.6hp / 325.1 tq , w/the headers it made 338.49 hp / 341.97 tq.

Since I picked it up today in the rain, I didn't want to take sloppy pictures so this is the Autotrader add photo.

Thanks, I have enough left over for a cam and then will be saving for some heads. After that it will be a D1SC if things go right.
