The alum cover is no biggie really unless your car spends a lot if time on a lift getting pictures taken of it...

That is one of the most badass LT1 stances I have ever seen! Love the contrast of a drag setup chilling in the snow .

EDIT: Do you have a pic from straight behind and car level?

Thanks. They are Billet Spec. Street Lites. 15x3.5 fronts and 15x10 rears. I saw on there site that the front weights 9lbs and the rear LS1 specific wheel weighs 16lbs but not sure if they are a little lighter since mine are the non-spec wheel but would guess they are close.

Thanks. I do not have a pic from the rear. Larry took those for me the other day. As mentioned I will try and get some more shots once the weather clears up some.

No no no, it's all wrong. You might as well box up all that crap under your car and ship it to me. I'll dispose of it properly.

Deal. All jokes aside, I need to do some suspension mods quick. LCA's, TA, PHB, shocks. I have to feather the throttle a lot to stop from going sideways in 1st, and I'm not even making that much power.
