If you're seriously interested, let me know, I'll get you some pics.
$15,000 FIRM, not a penny less, this is my rock bottom price, no low balls considered, not interested in trades.
2001 SS, ~65k miles, A/C and all factory options work
Body and paint are in good condition, not ready to win any shows, but it still looks good.
Major mods:
APS Twin Turbo, 10 psi, 585 rwhp on Kurt's dyno w/ unlocked converter. With a built bottom end and maxing out the turbos it will probably do in the neighborhood of 800 rwhp, there are upgraded turbos available for the kit that will 1000 rwhp
Alky control meth kit
small cam
Moser 12 bolt, spool
FLT lvl 4 4L80E w/ vac modulator, 3400-3600 PI stall
Full aftermarket suspension, Strange DA shocks, mix of Spohn & BMR LCA's, T/A, etc... most have spherical rod ends (solid mounts)
Pro stars, 325-50 15 M/T radials out back, probably 75% tread life, almost new front runners
trans temp, boost gauge, and LC1 wide band gauges
line lock / abs delete
LPE 2 step
twin 255 fuel pumps, 60 lb injectors, rail mount boost referenced FPR
3" duals w/ X pipe dumped

I'm know this list is not close to complete, if you are serious you can just check the car out for yourself.

The only real problem with the car that it runs hot in the summer driving around town with the AC on. No problem on the hwy cruising with the AC on, no problem driving around town with the AC off. I'm sure a Be Cool or Griffin radiator would fix the problem, the issue is restricted air flow from the intercooler being in front of the radiator.

Still no takers, not even on ls1tech. I've seen you've been trying to sell it for awhile.

I had it basically sold a while ago, the guy that was supposed to buy it got laid off the day he was going to come pick it up.
I just dropped the price, if it doesn't sell for this I'll just keep it.

Why would you wanna sell a lil monster like that anyway. If I did not have so many damned cars I would buy it from you 4sure! Good luck on the sale.

if your bored of the car i would sugest maybe having some fun by figuring out how to fix that radiator problem.

best suggestion is to buy an import and mod that since there are bookoos of mods that can be done. that would keep you busy for awhile

BUMP for badass car though

I know how to fix the radiator problem - just buy one and put it in. I would just like to sell the car as is. Wonderful suggestion though, thanks.

You honestly think you can do more mods to an import? The make or model of the car really has nothing to do with it other than what is available off the shelf and at AutoZone. I guess it is more acceptable to put neons and a stupid grill on an import, and since that will give it a higher total number of mods it means it is cooler??? or something????
Again, wonderful suggestion.

You have been very helpful, I'm glad I asked for your opinions.

wow he was just giving a suggestion,you can do equal mods to a import or domestic. And im sorry but im pretty sure all the imports on here that are modded dont have neons or mad tyte grills.way to sound ignorant.

It was sarcastic, I have no problems with imports, nor was I trying to insult import owners. His comments just rubbed me the wrong way. Telling me the best thing to do is to get an import b/c there are bookoo mods for it is.... well, I don't know what it is. It's weird since I have no idea who the guy is and he's giving me advice on what my hobby should be and his logic is a bit "off".

hmmmmmm well sir your right we dont know eachother. but i have owned more cars than most in my short years of driving. make that over 15 cars and 3 bikes so idk. just saying you can take an 8 cylinder and add heads cam exhaust and have you a nice fast quarter. it takes more work to make that 4 cylinder match the 8 and then make it faster and still be RELIABLE. this is all just in my opinion though.

anyway as for imports adding neons............GAY your right. my import is all stock down to the rims and tires so that riced out stereotype is not cool. Damn tha F&F movie.

anyway sorry if i offended you i was just thinkin of ways so you could keep your beautiful car or at least help you not get bored

quick question though.......if your problem is having your fmic in front of your radiator how will changing it help since the fmic will still be in front of it blockin the same amount of air as before unless the radiator is twice as big and holds more water. sounds to me like you might have a fan problem. i know on several cars they have a high speed for when the ac is turned on and a low speed for when its off. or two seperate fans. idk much about those cars so could that be possible. or can maybe goin to a fan that sucks harder help

a larger radiator will have more surface area

People with the kit have replaced the radiator and it solved their problem. It does not correct the airflow issue but the increased cooling capacity makes up for it.
