Vehicle Detail

rebuilt engine 10,000 miles ago with SLP forged crank, rods, 8.5-1 pistons, Comp cams hydraulic roller lifters, Hitech pushods, ARP head studs, Cometic head gaskets, 60 lb. injectors, Kooks headers and exhaust with a quiet and inexpensive side exhaust. Procharger D1 set very conservatively to 12 psi, runs great on pump gas 91/93 octane, expect 16-17 mpg city, 22-25 hwy.With a simple pulley change the psi could be increased much higher for additional horsepower and torque, that the engine could easily handle, but I left it as it was because you need really sticky tires, that wear out too fast, to harness all that power. Also the stock cam was reused/reground, if even more horsepower is desired, a supercharger cam could be installed, but would require changing out the valve-drivetrain to something that could handle the higher lift. Rebuilt transmission and 3200 rpm lockup stall converter. The high stall converter is now unnecessary as this engine has tremendous low end torque, however the stall converter makes the shifts from the built transmission much smoother so I left the stall at 3200 rpm. The car is easy to drive around town despite the high stall converter and power thanks in part to the programmable shifts set up by the included SCT tuner. Adult driven regularly, never raced, taken to the track, or abused. Scheduled maintenance always performed on time.Two sets of rims that can accommodate up to 345 rear and 275 front tires. Two of the rims were purchased with minor cosmetic curb damage, size 19x12, and are the newer ZO6 style. The rest of the rims are last generation Z06 rims size 18x10, 18x9, and 17x8.5. HUD, targa top, cold ac, CD changer.Paint in good condition with normal scratches, a crack over the right rear tire, small chips missing and a crack over over the rear left tire, and the front bumper cover is cracked and scraped.Needs: tires have little tread left, the active handling doesn't work, climate control back light is dim and it's hard to see the control settings in the daytime, driver’s seat has a tear in the bottom cushion and side bolster.
