FS: 1998 NBM Trans Am
Okay, to make a long story short....3 days ago, I threw a rod due to a spun rod bearing. There is now a hole in the passenger side block. The car ran 12.0-12.1's at the track. Was a nice TA but I can't keep pouring money into it anymore.
I know someone out there can make this TA a beast again, I was thinking about forged everything with a 408.... But I can't afford the modding world anymore.
Still has the Z06 wheels on it, tranny is rebuilt by Deon Faulk @ Faulk Performance. Deon had alot of experience with rebuilding tranny's. Heavy duty everything was equiped, and set up for abuse.
No other problems besides the block, except the front seat has a tear.

So becuase you were offered close to your asking price....you are going to raise the price??
And the "Only" Problem is the block?? What about Crank, Rods And Pistons???
