Wow. That really does sound good. I expected something stereotypical, but that's quite nice!

That's sick! Talk about having the best of both worlds....3rd gen styling and LSX power.

And talk about a sleeper! Well, it WOULD be a sleeper if it wasn't so loud.

What motor did the car originally have? It looks like Firebird with the T/A appearance package, was it a V6?

I love 3rd gens btw...I'd love to have a car like this, just in a '91 or '92 Formula body.

I noticed on your other video that you only had one corvette head cover, would the other one not fit?

Cool

I took the passenger side cover off, because I have to run the wires under my fuel rail for the driver side cover to clip on. So for now I took it off.

What all do you guys wanna know?

Nice. I for one would like to know that exhaust setup (size of piping, y, x, or h pipe, mufflers)... sounds great man.

Oh, and could u give some info on how hard to swap was? Like how long it took, about how much everything was, etc (if you wouldn't mind...)
