1998 Pontiac Trans Am M6

Im posting this for a friend of mine who works at the shop (F-Body Motorsports) He is selling his 98 Trans Am. It has about 75K miles on it (I'll geet the exact number tomorrow). It has Grotyham Long Tube Headers, a custom Y-Pipe and a flowmaster cat back. Cat-Back is only a few months old and the Y-Pipe has been ceramic coated only a couple months ago. It has 4.10 gears and a 3-Link suspension set-up (no torque arm). It has brand new Sumitumo HTRZ's up front and only a month or so older Nitto Drag radials in the rear, all 275/40/17's. It is lowered with the Eibach Sportlines and has Bilstein shocks all around. He has installed a Torquer V2 Cam in the car with Patriot Springs (again I will get specifics for you tomorrow) and an LS6 intake. The car has been meticulously well maintained, the car was rarely seen for the first year I worked with him and when I did see it he was probably cleaning it. Necer been smoked in, no flaws at all in the interior. Paint is in very good shape with no noticeable flaws to speak of. The car was cradle'd to do the cam install and while the motor was out he had the engine bay painted to match the outside of the car, he also re-routed the wirring harness that goes over the passenger side strut tower and re-routed some of the ground wires to hide them from view, it is a very clean engine bay. It has Corvette FRC's and a Hotchkis Strut Tower Brace as well. All modifications have been professionally installed and maintained at F-Body Motorsports, this car has had very few reliability issues. The car was tuned for an older cam shaft which he removed due to low performance numbers, the cam sent was not the one ordered, it was substantially smaller then it was supposed to be. Car put down 355 RWHP on the only cam and has picked up quite a bit more with the new cam. Very streetable cam, again almost no reliability issues every faced.


Performance Mods:
Torquer V2 Camshaft
Patriot Valve Springs
LS6 Intake
Removed EGR and AIR injection
Underdrive Pulley
Grotyham Long Tube Headers
Ceramic coated custom Y-Pipe
Flowmaster Cat-Back
Pro 5.0 Short Throw Shifter

Handling Mods:
Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs
3-Link Suspension Set-Up
Bilstein Shocks
Adj. Panhard
Hotchkis Strut Tower Brace
Cross-Drilled and Slotted Rotors all around

I will update this tomorrow with more specifics and should have more pictures up by this weekend.

Asking $15,000 OBO
