My Hugger orange SS

It pains me to be posting this but priorities change and I have to make some sacrifices.

Anyway...here are all the specs that I can think of:

1999 Hugger orange SS, 1 of 375 made, 77,000 miles, M6, Ttops
Runs and drives like a dream. Nice low rumble around town until you go WOT then it is absolutely wicked sounding. The only flaws to speak of are a few of the usual stone chips up front, one stone chip on the winshield has turned into a crack, and a 1-2" scuff on the rear bumper near the liscense plate (have no idea how it got there). Never in any accidents, never seen snow, rarely sees rain.

Here are the mods:

Drivetrain/suspension:

Rebuilt T56 (stock rebuild except for steel shift forks, by ValveGod on LS1Tech)
pro 5.0 shifter with Lou's short stick
Thunder Racing line-lock
Ram HD clutch with billet flywheel
'02 slave, McCleod adjustable master
Ford 9" rear, Daytona Tru-Trak center section, 4.30 gear, ARP 1/2" studs
UMI adjustable frame-mounted T/A
UMI adjustable chromoly poly/rod LCA's
BMR adj. panhard bar
17x9/17x11 black ZR1's w/BFG 275-17's FT, Nitto 315's Drag radials-Rear

Engine:

ETPerformance race-ported 5.3 heads: 64cc, Manley*2.05/1.57, Comp 921 dual valvesprings/Ti retainers
approx: 11.0:1 compression
Comp 232/237 595/601 112lsa cam Tuned at Wheel2Wheel, nice lope but very streetable
LS6 intake/ported TB/MAF
TexasSpeed lid, Fast toys ram air
ASP under-drive pulleys
Racetronix fuel system w/ 42lb injectors
Meziere electric water pump
LS6 ported oil pump
AC/airpump/EGR deleted (have all parts to re-connect AC)
AMW oil catchcan
poly motor mounts
Hooker longtube headers, 3" y into a custom 4" mandrel exhaust through a single chamber Flowmaster muffler out a stainless Magnaflow Tailpipe
Engine mods have around 6,000 miles on them
Compression was 190-198 on all cylinders.
Uses about a half a quart of oil every 3000 miles

Looking to get $14000. Pretty firm on this. Would consider a clean modded LT1 Z or SS as partial trade.

Oh yeah, the car dyno'd 400rwhp/387rwtq on a Mustang dyno with a very safe 11.8-12.2 AFR no knock. On a Dynojet it would be north of 430rwhp
Best ET was 11.80, best MPH was 121, best 60' is a crappy 1.84



hmmm...Why can't I post attachments? I remember posting them in the past?? I have a bunch of recent pics if anyone is interested

Pics might tempt me...

I'm actually probably waiting a bit longer, too. But what you are describing is a car I'd be interested in... I've wanted a Hugger Orange SS since they came out in '99...

On the other hand, if I end up leasing a Goat as my next DD, I'll probably go without a separate "toy car" for a while, whenever I decide to sell my LT1...

You should post some pics for our enjoyment, though.

I've got a bunch of pictures to post up...but my little "posting rules" box says I MAY NOT post attachments. Do I have some setting screwed up or something? I don't recall posting anything obscene or anything like that!?

I'm interested in this car... I'd really like to see some pics.

to post pics, you have to upload them to a site such as imageshack, then link them to the site using [pic] tags. If youre unsure of how to do it, email the pics to me, stownes@gmail.com, and i will upload and post them for you.

95 camaro z28: Thanks, but I already have a Ext cab 4X4 that is my DD and winter ride.

JS02: I'm in Michigan, near Detroit. The AC has been removed but I still have all the parts to reinstall it. I'd be interested in more info and/or pics of your '97! You can email me what you're thinking and pics to: esidemeyers@comcast.net
