This is my 5L Calais. Its got a balanced and rebuilt engine with cam and crane roller rockers. Turbo 350 Box with Stage 2 kit and LSD. Its all Calais inside. Stereo is a mix of Kenwood, Clarion and pioneer with my MTX Thunder subs about to join the party. The wheels are genuine Walkies. Suspension is by Pedders with new Springs, shocks and adjustable sway bar. It chirps into second and when changing into third at 6 Grand gives you an almighty kick in the behind!!!! Plans for the future include a respray in the standard color and a Gilmer Drive. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
