I will entertain trades but will have to have close to 10k coming my.

This car has always been an absolute blast to own. I purchased the car in 2013 bone stock with 71k. First thing I did was pull it apart and begin my build. I did all the work myself along with helpFrom KK performance in little rock. After build iv only put 2k on it and iv decided that I don't need such a powerful street car anymore and think I want to build a classic car next.

Mods include

ENGINE:

408 stroker *ls2 block. 9:1 comp. ( JE pistons, Eagle H beam rods, 4340 Eagle crank, L19 main studs. all armor coated. Built in 2011 by Arrowhead Performance in El Derado, Ar.

Stock 317 heads with BTR 660 " valve springs. ARP head studs.

EXHAUST:

KOOKS 1 7/8 headers with 3" kooks off road x pipe. NPP mufflers ( just installed mufflers and have not ordered the NPP in a box controller)

FUEL & COOLING SYSTEM:

Triple 255 Walbro fuel pumps on a fore innovations billet hanger.
-8 feed and return lines
Aeromotive fuel rails
1000cc Siemens deka injectors.
AIS rear mount dual nozzle meth injection kit.

Dewitts cut down radiator with dual fans,
160 degree thermostat

SUSPENSION/WHEELS:

LG gt2 adjustable coilovers.
Spyder wheels 18x8.5, 19x 12 with new tires
Ccw classics drag pack
16x4, 16x11. Hoosier quick time pro 28x14.50x16.

DRIVELINE:

McLeod rxt clutch.
Recently rebuilt torque tube
C5 trans / diff.
Transmission was built by "Pro 1" In Texarkana, Ar.
5310 mainshaft, bronze shift forks
300m half shafts in rear diff. 3:42 gears.

FORGED INDUCTION:

F1r procharger ( was purchased new in 2011, I purchased it in 2013 from previous owner) KK performance replaced all seals.
Cartek direct drive with 8 rib pullies (currently have 4.13")
I used several different blower company components to complete the kit. Has A&A intake tube w/ ls7 maf card.
ECS U - tube with the rubber L tube to blower. All 3" tubing
Big red BOV.

EXTERIOR/INTERIOR

OEM rear widebody fenders
Paint is great other than a light scuff on rear bumper, hardly noticable. I'd say 8/10
Interior is completely stock. I didn't want to run boost/fuel/ afr gauges everywhere so I suppose you could say your driving blind on your AFR. I just don't like all the aftermarket lights inside and wanted to feel like a stock car more than a race car.

CONS:

Traction control light stays on most of the time, it still works but light won't go off when T/C is inactive.
Wheel sensors light comes on I suppose due to the wheels not having the sensors in them.
BOV was welded on the wrong side of intercooler which is now blocking the path of a big mouth intake. So the blower is currently filterless.

So there you have it. I built this car to be more reliable than a track car, it has never seen the drag strip. Just done a few Highway pulls and that's about as hard as iv pushed it. Car runs really cool. Stays around 180 degrees in 80/90 degree weather.dum
A/c still blows cold as well. I have no doubt I can get in the car right now and drive it across the country with no issues.

I'm located in Texarkana, Arkansas.
you can reach me at 870-602-0511.

Pictures are to come soon.

Car hasn't been on dyno for final tune. Just a safe street tune. I'm guessing but car should make 850 - 900rwhp @ 18#.

Thanks for looking
