been putting this together for the past couple months as a shop car with brad, tim, and kevin.

whole goal is to go 9.99, get a time slip and sell it.

combo consists of:
- gen 3 5.3
- BTR valve train
- t4 s475 turbo
- some junk turbo hotside that we modified
- ebay a2a intercooler
- a level 17 4l60 & protorque converter

still need to:
- replace flexplate with correct one
- rebuild the front suspension
- get some quality used rear suspension goodies
- put a decent fuel system in it
- get lines and a condenser for the A/C(yes. i said air conditioning)
- get it tuned
- MAYBE find a crackhead deal on a rear end?

and yes. it can be for sale as is, if someone is interested.

Put a LSx 427ci motor in it and I might make you a reasonable offer of $12k. Deal? :rofl:



Did you guys ever get the 9.99 pass in the car? And Tim wrecks everything. What were you thinking? haha
it was on a base tune, man. i guess cooper fell inlove with it

he sends me a text sometime like this thing really hauls the mail or something along those line..
im like "hey fucko, its on a base tune, you best not be in it"
tim replies, "coop likes turbo noises heheh"

never made it to the track, never "finished" the exhaust. never brought it back to the shop until it was hurt lol.

A 16 year old with a 9 second capable Fbody. Not sure that is the route I'd go for a new driver. lol

I thought maybe this was a 3 way owner car that was going to be flipped based off the original post. If it is Tim's car, I'm sure he will keep it. Unless he gets tired of repairing it.
it originally started as a shop car. but slowly morphed into Ron Burgundy - by Tim W. lol
