Its funny to see us corpus guys in the background of some of those pics. Well i can tell you that the GTO sounds like a monster. It looks awesome in person too. I had never seen a GTO until i saw that one at MTI. Havent see one in corpus yet.

Wheels are B/C Rallye's in 18" config. We're having custom "GTO" center caps made for them. The 5.7 badge will be changed soon but we'll just run incognito for now! I'll have many more pics and sound clips for you guys soon... 1/4 miles times also coming soon...

Hey MTI run the GTO with unmodified drivetrain, of course a TC or a clutch will be needed but leave the driveshafts and diff stock. I'm sure you will be suprised how long they last. All else fails get a australian Harrop IRS diff that is OE looking but uses ford 9" Ring pinion and i'm assuiming the many Ford 9" LSD and locking set ups.
A KAAZ LSD would also be helpful in the stocker diff.
