-Aluminum head with steel roller rockers
-451 hp/485 ft lbs torque
-March performance serpentine conversion
-Tremec TKO 600
-Vintage Air a/c
-Auto Meter gauges
-Moser 9" rear w/trutrack differential and Richmond gears
-Pypes 304 polished exhaust
-Ricks stainless tank
-Tubular control arm w/QA1 coil overs
-Detroit speed mini tub with 3" drop leaf springs and DSE shocks
-Electric Areomotive fuel pump
-Detroit speed electric RS headlight kit
-Detroit speed wiper motor hidden in cowl
-Painless Performance trunk mount battery harness
-American Racing torque thrust M wheels 17' up front and 18" in rear
-Billet parking lights and tail lights

Thanks,
Jon

Great job on the car! So tough to say without seeing it up close, but looks like 50-60k could be had, maybe more.

Thank you guys for your opinions. It was a lot of work but I learned a lot by doing everything myself.

Even more impressive that you did it yourself, so I suspect that you probably could make some money if you got 60k out of it. If you are considering selling, I wouldn't put anymore into it, you probably won't get it back.

That's what I was thinking. I will probably keep it for awhile unless something else comes up.

Car looks great! I would say at least $50k.

Can I ask your opinion of those DSE leafs? Think I need to go that route for now but I'm concerned about ride quality a little. Thanks!

Thanks. The ride quality of the Detroit Speed leaf springs is not to bad. The car seems to do very well with them. The ones I put on are the 3" drop which I believe makes the ride a little ruffer then the 2" drop. I did take it out today on a small road course and it did surprise me how well it handled.

Did you decide to keep it? Looks like a great car and like others said probably a $50k car or better.

Yep I kept it. Ended up getting first place this past May at the Camaro Nationals in Frederick, MD with it in the Pro-touring/custom class.
