[QUOTE="Yella95Gt, post: 1418158, member: 21962"] For a little background information on the vehicle it was purchased over eBay a few years back by my father. He decided to put a 347 stroker motor in it and the guy who did the engine swap did a shitty job so the engine ended up going to shit and now a 302 motor is back in and my father decided to get a 2006 Gt that was supercharged leaving him with an extra car. I decided to buy the car and here it is as it sits today. The Good. The engine is dirty but now that the battery cables have been replaced it starts up nice and runs great with the small exception of a small idle problem(high idle). Im thinking it needs tuned due to the added airflow mods. The Bad. Really nothing seriously wrong the motor for the drivers seat needs replaced which will probably be done this weekend as the part came with the car. There is some small rust in the engine bay but nothing major I will try to sand it out and spray it this weekend as well. The Ugly. Okay I am in no way dissing anyone who has these mods but I cannot stand the aftermarket tail lights and the black aftermarket gas cap. To each there own but I like the as close to stock look as possible. SO with that being said I should have those things taken car of this weekend but I would like the eventually get 96-98 taillight with sequential harnesses. Also the engine bay is in desperate need of a cleaning. But here is the car now: [url=https://imgbb.com/][img]https://image.ibb.co/hCbfTv/Engine.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://ibb.co/hxw3gF][img]https://image.ibb.co/j86Qva/image1_3.jpg[/img][/url] [url=https://ibb.co/iVJuov][img]https://image.ibb.co/eGf78v/image2_3.jpg[/img][/url] I am seeing the cai, trick flow intake manifold, possibly performance wires and distributor cap?, and there is an exhaust mod. I am wondering if there is an easy tune available on americanmuscle or something all the SCT tuner seem to be 96+ Any ideas? also needing help breaking down the mods so I can get a somewhat accurate tune. The progress will be slow as I won't be in the states for the next 5 months so the only updates will be parts ordered. [/QUOTE]
