30k miles and counting of daily abuse. A/C cold, exhaust note perfect, supercharger WHINE, and torque... YES.

Love the 4.3. But the transmission on these cars are just too short for Chevy truck engines IMPO. Thats my only gripe. The power dies off at like 5.5k which puts the max speed I like to go with this car around 135 or 140 (I get scared of oil starvation).



VR6 is a great motor choice for this trans. And I'm sure it sounds fantastic. I'm not an expert on the VR6 is the one you have the one with the slanted pistons or the flat top ones?

Your body work is cool. Definitely POPS. How wide is the back end?!?
