1994 Trans Am GT

This clip is of the car idling from a cold start with the DHM set to open on the Borla exhaust. Once I get someone over to hold the camera or pump the pedal I'll get a rev clip.

The current mileage is 93k. The original owner and I have both kept it a garage queen. Obviously the AFR LT4's are ideal for anyone thinking of adding forced induction, I hate to buy parts twice which is why there is really nothing but the best of the best in this car. Craig Gallant of Gallant Technical Performance really went all out on the heads, which he had for six months. All mods have 12k miles. However, the car has new Nittos, flywheel, clutch, shifter and chrome ZR-1 rims.
