The car looks great man.
Its nice to see I'm not the only one wisely spending my tax free deployment dollars
Iraq bought my WS6, and Afghanistan will be funding a whole new setup

i think it set me back a little over 3k for all of it.
and it rides so much better a complete different car really, still need to install rear springs when they come in.
only drove it about 40 miles before i swapped the ls6 intake for a 102/102 combo with a 100mm maf and 104 ftp lid, and after the swap the 408 ran like **** and didnt have a chance to get it tuned befor i left again for japan. so fot the next 10 months it will sit in the garage waiting for the new stg 3 lq9 heads, texas giant cam and a tune, then ill be able to enjoy the car again
