        Thanks fellas happy to hear!!! I have 4 weeks (almost exactly) to have these wheels all done. I have been thinking of doing them black, I know that I'm with the minority but I miss the wheels in my avatar (spelling?)... It's powdercoat, it can be changed. The 10 spokes look rough but I know weldcraft will do their magic on them.

        I still need to rub the roof, it isn't bad by any means but my painters OCD is kicking in and I know it needs to be done.

        I might think about changing my exhaust. It's loud as shit but I'm not sure on the tone. Maybe ill do a flowmaster y merge and do a different bullet (magnaflow or xr1?) but idk how much that will change it. I like it loud but the tone is getting old.

        • I can honestly say I hate this thread. Unsubscribed and removing all of my posts.








































          Jk. Can't wait to see some wide wheels back on that bad boy! Check the exhaust database . I have a magna flow bullet on mine, they call it magna mouth since I changed from the loudmouth resonator. Convinced Matt(rider man) to get one on his T/A when he came over to hear it.

          • And mine is a dyno-mouth. Has a dynomax bullet. I ran the same thing on my bolt on stock internal 99 and it sounded much better.

              I really liked the SLP Powerflow exhaust, actually bought it for my f body before I sold it. kind of pricey though

              • I'm still following too! I love this build.

                I agree, a better merge might help the tone. Could also consider throwing in a bullet behind each tailpipe in addition to the one in the I-pipe. They're only like $40 right? Would probably help shape up the tone quite a bit without making it too quiet.

                • Update on the wheels. I got $100 knocked off and they got put in front of the 5 week waiting list

                      • Just an update, still waiting on the wheels from weldcraft, at this rate it's going to be hard to get them coated and some rubber put on by the m&g :/

                        Car is running great.

                        • Bummer that it's taking so long for the rims to come back. Do you have a spare set of rims, then?

                            Yeah I bought the complete set of 10 spokes from Sean. Then bought a pair from tech (for this reason) I didn't want to be rocking out the nappy stock salad shooters lol.

                            Even if I got them back today the biggest delay would be getting them coated. I'm still undecided what color I want to go with.

                            • Got a call from weldcraft. Wheels are done and much cheaper than expected

                              Going to get them coated by Superior coatings in Fenton. $160 for all the wheels. His (outsource) wants $200 to blast so ill be doing them.

                              Hopefully I should have them blasted, coated and back to me by next weekend. That gives me a week to find tires and get them mounted.

                              Toyo/nitto drs or street tires?

                              Maybe these should be done by the m&g after all!!
