    Ive been through that. It's not infinitely helpful. Plus i have a tool that helps me measure all my spacing anyways. Really not a lot of variety in that thread.

    Im on my cell phone but thinking thats the 3030 autosport mesh wheel. It was my prior go to and almost pulled the trigger on it. Its a tad cheaper as well :p

    Here are some wheel choices (colors are stock and not representing choices id necessarily make). Current snowflakes are siver with gold insert. Id either go polished or brushed and potentially have some gold in there depending on design. Leaning heavily toward the Atlas.

    Well suspension is done (not as low as i like yet...), corvette brakes done, and the motor is built and EFI system is on its way and the heads should be back next week from porting. Now finally with all of that done...i can move onto a custom wheel setup. And lets be honest...most of whats...

    SS braided brake lines

    I started painting everything black and was about to buy black accessory drive stuff.. but now im thinking about going all white.... Decision time and im not sure. White would be suuuper clean against the black firewall but harder to keep clean and i do drive this car a fair amount.

    Yeah December 11 2021 i placed the order. I think its something to do with making the intakes but im not sure. Never could get a straight answer. You may not be wrong as well since the efi system went up over $500 since i purchased it then.

    Oh and image of the valley plate is not mine for transparency. But I did paint the block, new fbody pan, covers and going to be painting my valley cover to match this one. Next will be painting the accessories or buying them in black to match. Really love to do a black and gold accent color...

    Turbo 5.3 1981 Trans Am

    Well apparently im too dumb to figure out indtalling leaf springs and a rear end. I feel like everything is right, straight and the rear is on the perches correctly. Maybe im wrong but it doesnt seem hard. Yet when i went to install my Herb Adams mod traction bars even at their shortest setting...

    C5 rear calipers RH+LH with normal shocks....?

    Raising this thread from the dead lol. Felt this needed a revival for anyone else doing these swaps. Been banging my head thinking about why i was running into an issue with my driver side shock hitting my corvette brakes....turns out i need another LH caliper. I was considering flipping...

    DSE VS Speed Tech VS UMI

    I waited 17 weeks for most of my parts and 19 weeks for front sway bar. Its worth every minute of the wait though! Unfortunately this is the unexpected hurdle ive run into across all parts of this build for my car.
