    Here is my 1999 GTP Sedan. She has a rebuilt L67 on an L26 short block. It has a 3.4 ZZP MPS Pulley, a NIC cam with 90# valve springs, SLP headers, K&N CAI and a 2 1/2" Borla Exhaust. She also has a rebuilt 4T65e-HD with a transgo shift kit and a high stall torque convertor. Its sitting on sprint lowering springs with front and rear strut tower bars and 18" MKW wheels. It has drilled and slotted front and rear rotors and ceramic pads. She has also had the rear door handles and trunk lock shaved. It has also been completely de-badged. And yes, the tails are horrible but they came with the car and I haven't found clean stock replacements yet. In the near future I will be dropping the pulley size and adding a Gen V blower with N* tb.

    I did buy a can of VHT nightshade to ease the pain of seeing them until I find good stock tails.

    Looks good so far, the nightshade should definitely help with the tails for right now. One thing i'd do though is paint the valences a different color to give some separation.

    Im not sure where to keep modding. I would like to get into the low 12's. I was thinking about a gen 5 blower with a N* tb or an ls1 tb. Maybe a turbo kit. I would have to strengthen the trans for more power. Any other opinions on here about possible go fast mods?

    So within the next week or two she'll have a new transmission, a new cam, a ported gen 3, ported TB, bigger injectors, and a smaller pulley. Then off to the dyno/drag strip to see what she can do with this new cam. I also finally got around to doing a little more work on the practice heads. i may actually run these when they are done.

    Update: Screw it, im just going to announce what cam that is. Drum roll please...........Its the Prototype bully flo street cam.
