Whatchu got?

Alright, I'm bored. I want to see what your cars have.

I'll start.

1991 Pontiac Firebird Formula 5.906(or so), used to be an L98/auto/G92 hardtop car back in the day.

-All power options from the factory
-Forged goodies
-TFS 23* heads, Ferrea valves, Comp springs, roller rockers, Comp .080" pushrods, sheet metal valve covers
-Holley Stealth Ram, BBK 58mm TB, 42lb SVO injectors, Walbro (soon to have dual Walbros in-tank)
-Procharger, pullied for "12 psi", 730 ECM with 2-bar MAP
-SLP 1.75" headers, Custom 3.5" Borla exhaust, fully flanged for modular removal
-T56/SLP shifter/McLeod adjustable master cylinder/re-sleeved slave cylinder/custom hydraulic line (it basically kicks all other T56 hydraulics' asses), mild clutch (will probably upgrade to something more aggressive)
-C5 Z06 Front brakes/1LE rear brakes, stainless braided lines
-Moser 12-bolt, 3.73 gears, Detroit TruTrac
-3" aluminum driveshaft with solid Spicer u-joints
-Lakewood adjustable panhard rod and tubular LCAs, stock torque arm
-18x9"/18x10.5" Fikse FM10 with Nitto 555 tires
-Custom steering shaft with billet -joints, new quick ratio steering box, leather wrapped steering wheel
-Energy Suspension polyurethane bushings, Moog ball joints
-Stiff springs, Vuuunderbar, 36mm/24mm sway bars
-Sweet digital in-dash fuel pressure gauge, VDO boost gauge
-Used to have Corbeau seats but traded those for the 12-bolt, will get new ones some day
-Stereo delete
-Peeling clearcoat
-Dirt, cobwebs, expired tags

That's the gist of it I think. I'm sure there are some things I forgot.

Come on guys, I want to see this thread filled with upgrade ideas for me to use.

He bought it like that, but it looks like the old owner busted out a pair of dykes and made the holes big enough. With the dashpad on it's clean though, you can't tell at all. Sounds good too.

Held the gas to 4k, and launched with the clutch. It still spun, but spun much less than normal. I was on nitto 555Rs that I gave a decent burnout to.
