Default My new toy *99 FRC*
Sold my bird last month and picked up this 99 FRC from the original owner out in Vancouver. Not a bad buy for $8,500. Solid condition inside and out @ 135k. Just lowered it and put some new shoes on. C7 Z06 wheels. It's going to Tom's shop here soon for a LS3 crate motor and some other goodies. I'm in need of an LS2 TB if anyone has one for sale. I've also got a good condition LS3 intake manifold and a LS3 TB if anyone is interested.

Great looking car. I just bought a 2000 but in no way as clean as yours.

Great buy.
LS2 TB has gotten hard to find.
Try Amazon?

You going to beef the differential? They are a bit fragile.
I just happen to have a low mile 3.42 spare along with a hardened long side output shaft (not installed) if you decide to upgrade.

Haven't given it any thought. Let me look into a couple things and I'll get back with you.

With how you drive you'll be fine. I never had any issues and I had a completely stock diff.

I did some research yesterday and I'm not going to touch it. I'll address it down the road if it should be a problem. Nice profile pic little bro

Negative. I've spoken to Kyle Thompson several times about the build and their long blocks are a lot more money. Super cool and helpful guy.
