The ws6 wheels 01-02 are the same as the 95 -96 firehawk wheels the 97-02 hawk wheels are different. And alp no longer carries the 97-02 hawk wheels

Wanna trade/sell those widened rims? I'd have to get spacers with less offset though. -Joshua

Hawk 312- my heart dropped for a second when you said it was LT4 equipped and it was being sold. (I thought it was one of the 29-1997 cars)

Then as I was scrolling down through the pictures I noticed it had the wrong rims for a '97, missing the 330 hp decals, and when I got to your sig and saw it was a '95 it all made sense.

I wish you luck on getting that LS1 'Hawk. Those are some VERY nice shots of the '95. Have you considered keeping it and supercharging it?

Ohhhhh yeah! I actually owned a `94 and a `99 that were both supercharged! I would have done that with this one except that the compression ratio is waaayy too high at 11.5:1. I hope to get an LS1 hawk soon that I would hopefully be able to put a D1 on. My `99 had a D1 on it and at 8psi made 460hp to the wheels!!! No headers, stock heads, stock cam!!

Nice. I'm saving right now for a D1, large chamber heads, and a blower cam. Fully polished of course.

My Complete Firehawk Collection

Here are all the Firehawks I have owned thus far, in order of ownwership:

Sorry, but this is the best pic I could find of this one. It is a `94, number 203. This one was unusual because it was metallic green with tan cloth interior. Believe it or not, the green looked *very* good when it was all shined up.



This one is also a `94, number 312 (yes, I need to update my user name). Before I sold this one, I had a rebuilt 355 with ATI blower (12psi) with intercooler. I had trouble finding a clutch that would hold.




This one is a `99, and the first one that I bought locally (nice to not have to travel for one). Before I sold this one, it also had an ATI blower (twin intercooler D1) and dynoed at 460hp at the wheels. Someone from California bought this from me, sight unseen!!



This one is a `95, number 31. It is the one I just sold.



The one that I just purchased, but have yet to pick up, looks just like this one. This is a sub photo, but mine will look just like it when I am done:



I`m not sure, but I may have the record for owning the most Firehawks in a 7 year period.
