Squale iii Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) I'm just testing the waters here. I want a C5 vette so bad I can taste it, so I'd like to see what I can get for my Z28 convertible. General information: It's dark blue, tan top, SS 17" wheels with 275s all the way around. Tan leather interior, power everything, keyless entry, cd player, factory alarm, factory tinted windows, front and rear defrost. I bought the car when it had 65k on it, and now it's in the upper 80k range. I religiously change the oil every 3k with Mobile 1 fully synthetic motor oil and a Mobile 1 oil filter. Things I've done since purchasing it: *Had tranny rebuilt by the owner of Dayton 5.0 (Mike?). Also replaced gears 2,3,and 4. *All new hydraulics (new slave cylinder, clutch master cylinder) Needless to say, the car shifts flawlessly. Parts list: *Ported Stock Throttle Body *Centerforce Dual Friction Clutch *B&M Ripper Shifter *ASP Underdrive Pulley Kit *K&N Air Filter *SLP Lid *LS6 Intake Manifold *Pacesetter Long Tube Headers *Pacesetter Off Road Y-Pipe *Magnaflow Bullet Style muffler *Custom Tune by Tracy Scott *160 Degree T-stat *Raptor Shift Light *Subframe connectors *6 point roll cage *G5X3 Camshaft *Hardened Pushrods *Patriot Gold Extreme Spring Kit Car dyno'd 404rwhp all motor. (before the pulley) Everything was professionally installed and tuned. When the cam was installed, I did 3 consecutive oil changes at different intervals to (immediately from driving home, 100 miles after, 200 miles after the last one). The car runs absolutely perfect and pulls strong. The best time I managed at kilkare was 12.06@116.3 with a 1.83 60 foot (before the pulley). Car still has a factory 10 bolt with 3.42 gear. I will entertain any reasonable offers. PM me for a faster response. http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/PicDay2009007.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/PicDay2009013.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/PicDay2009029.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/Newpix004.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/CIMG0344.jpg http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m306/squale_2006/PicDay2009007.jpg Couple vids: http://www.fquick.com/videos/g5x3_ls1_idle/8468 On the Street Radials http://www.fquick.com/videos/12_flat_run_first_time_at_KK/8320 street tires vid http://www.fquick.com/videos/kk_race__4/8322 Weight Reduction Items: *A/C removed, however I have all of the components to reinstall it. (who needs a/c in a vert) *EGR removed *Spare tire and jack removed (still have both) *Rear seats removed (still have them, very easy to reinstall) *No catalytic converters $10,500 OBO. Will entertain any reasonable offers! Edited August 5, 2009 by Squale iii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trix-storm Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 also you have a B&M Ripper shifter... not a pro 5.0. i was wrong when you first got the car i thought you had a pro 5.0 but its a ripper. i noticed the last time we worked on it. i can also vouch that he did change the oil properly after the cam install. also you do have the patriot Gold extreme spring kit with titanium locks and retainers. and you have comp hi tech chromly pushrods(stock length) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
