FLP headers with cats
ASP crank pulley
airbox lid and larger SLP MAF, LS6 intake manifold
Borla catback
Moser 12-bolt w/ 4.10 gears
BMR adj torque arm
LG Motorsports LCA's and panhard
weld-on subframe connectors

very nice, i might have to get one haha, so is this going to be your daily driver now?
No, its too nice to daily drive. Its going to park next to the Vette in the garage or in storage with the '69. I'll drive it when the weather is nice. Still have the Dodge to drive daily, and Lisa drives the Mustang. Its hard to believe this car is a '98, it looks brand new.

For a cruiser, it should work. I liked the silver one though.

BTW, you change cars way too often. Keep one and get to know it, you might like it

Nice trade Tony.... Now put some Kooks 1 7/8's on and pick up 15-25 rwhp with no problem... When I took my FLP's off I was amazed on the gains.
