No more boat anchor LT1 - 2000 Trans Am
After giving up on getting a 16-17 SS because I am poor, I decided to start looking for a 00-02 trans am or ws6. WS6s are calling a lot of money, when really, everything would be replaced besides the hood.
So I posted on LS1tech with an ISO/WTB post and someone from NC messaged me saying he had a stock 00 TA. I sent carchex out to look at it, and he sent pics, very clean. Few days later, it is here at my doorstep 2000 Trans Am, ~119k miles, only mod was a t handle hurst shifter :bertstare: https://i.imgur.com/cr8nNTFh.jpg First mod was removing the handle, luckily the stock knob was in the glovebox https://i.imgur.com/FlBWXHnh.jpg First real mod was reverse LEDs, because yeah stock bulbs suck https://i.imgur.com/0GguO9Kh.jpg While in there, did some race car weight reduction with some help. https://i.imgur.com/5jF3Eu7h.jpg I have an SLP Lid for it and a tick short throw. Going to order madhammer (gmmg), strano/koni yellows, and hunt for some sportline 17s :shock: I turned to the dark side, abandoning LT1 camp:mrgreen: |
cool, get out there and enjoy it

Sweet, thanks.
When I had to push my Formula into the garage I put 4 spares on it to make it easier to roll, worked well and it looked funny AF. Pushing it meant going uphill and across the sidewalk apron |
|
What's wrong with 2nd gear?

Spoke with Larry. Going to do an LS7 clutch setup and a standard rebuild from drivetrain dynamics, making it secure for about 450hp/torque which i wont hit for a very long time lol. I might have him toss on the catback/ac bracket depending on how much the rebuild will run me
|
I tried to not go down rabbit hole... longtubes are ordered..... and maybe other things
|
Just put in a Magnum F and be done with it. Won't be much more than a rebuild
