Hello All,

The motor was fully built by Billy Briggs of Briggs Performance in Michigan. It has run very strong since day one and was built to last!

Recent maintenance includes replacing the Moser 9" gears due to gear whine, rear-end is now very silent. I also had the BMR torque arm bracket that mounts to the rear end replaced (total cost with labor for replacing gears/bracket was $700). Backlash was out, and pinion was too loose, but is now fixed. I also updated the tune to improve driveability while using the AC.

This car runs perfect. Starts right up, does not stall, little to no bucking. Fully tuned through many many many hours of street driving. I will include all the tunes run through this, including EFILive and the wideband already hooked up in the vehicle ready for you to plug in your laptop and tune if you feel it necessary. There is an electrical fuel guage, oil pressure, and wideband guage on the drivers side pillar. All wires are tucked and routed properly.

Lastly, I will also throw in all spare parts that I have including brand new dual tip exhaust tips, SLP line lock, some stainless exhaust tubing (was going to use for a dual setup), and any other misc parts I have for the car (bolts, valve covers, LS1 coils/brackets, etc....).

Here are some links to pictures and videos:

SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY. Clear Michigan Title in hand. Current Texas Inspection - Registration renewed.

My price is FIRM $20K.

Can everyone see the pictures ok? Opinion? Thoughts?

This thing is seriously fast, pegged 123 mph in the 1/4 at.... 12.7 with 2.3 60ft lol, car weighs 3780 lbs (its been weighed, have scale readout). Can't go anywhere with street tires, ready for your slicks and 10 second passes all night long.

You have a VERY reasonable asking price and it's nice you broke down all the expenses for us. Bump for a badass ride!

Great build. Where were you when you ran the 1/4's? At least you can admit your lack of driving skills! haha With a good driver this car should probably run low 11's easy.

If you want to part out some of that suspension let me know. Could give you stock + cash for some of it, altho shipping might kill us haha. Shoot me a PM if interested.

Never heard of youtube's infamous "death of a trans-am" so no it isn't. But now you have my curiousity...

Used to live in Michigan, now I live in Fort Worth, TX.

Thanks, I even forgot some stuff like the Tick Master Cylinder, Volant CAI (which is actually a very nice piece contrary to what many say), UMI Strut tower brace, guages (weren't included in price breakdown).

LMAO, yea, its tough on street tires. That 1/4 was at Milan Raceway in Michigan. 10's is more like it with slicks, "ran" the quarter on a mustang dyno and it estimated I would hit 10.6 at 133 mph, of course given i can actually hook with some slicks.

It's my dream too! I really would be ok if it didn't sell...

Sorry, not going to part it out. If it doesn't sell, it'll stay tucked away in my garage being pampered by yours truly; just the way it is.

FYI to all, I just re-did my valuation using KBB.com as it allowed me to select specifically items this car came stock with. A lot more options compared to NADA, and its coming up with a price right around $13K, which is 2.6K above what NADA gave me.

I think I may be asking too little, I could have easily started this at $26K... really making me reconsider selling it... someone better buy it while this price lasts!!!
