I just bought me a 01 TA Ram Air to go with my 95 Z, and I was wandering if there is any trouble areas to checkout or look for on these cars? Thanks

check for piston slap (not a big deal but annoying), check the window motors, oil consumption on some ls1's sucks, literally, the rear end is a trouble spot too. if its a manual check the 2-3 shift and the 3-4, if its easy to put in and never grinds your good to go. cant really think of anything else. have fun with it and be safe.

usually a bent shift fork. not a big deal but can turn into one quickly.

Yes watch out for the "normal" piston slap on LS1s. :rolleyes:
