yes thanks i did noticed that i put the wrong year up just havent fixed it yet. The car currently sits is how i bought it and i wouldnt personally put a hsv front on it as its not a hsv and the plates im changing anyways as its up for rego this month but as for the badge on the rear i dont mind it but not a fan on them on the front but each to there own really.

yeah im putting rego on it today, will be leaving them on it as i couldnt be bothered changing it. Im actually taking EOI on the car as i should have really put the money towards something else but came home with this instead haha... but if no one is interested i will just put it aside and try and get that 10sec pass...

new rims look awesome lad... my car has smaller snails than yours mine are 28/71s, makes 390rwkw on a mainline dyno on 12psi. hasn't been raced yet.... if you plan to keep this car 1st thing id do is buy the cadillac trans pan and pick up. only a few 10 sec passes have been done using the 6sp auto due to oil surge making 1st to 2nd change slow. the caddy pan is baffled and holds couple litres more fluid.

yeah until the trans gives out i will run it as it is... 1st - 2nd is always a pain for these gearboxes, i have a brand new 1300hp powerglide sitting here i could put in but it would wreck the car if i put it in.... is yours a ls1 or ls2 or l98? http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=247667
