New here: My 6 speed 87 grand national
Hey everyone, new to the site. figures I could post my car in here seeing as its a 6 speed now...haha. did the conversion this past spring, its a boosted LS with a T56 behind it. It still needs a lot of work, some if it is still pretty ugly haha. Motor combo is as follows:

5.3 iron block, stock bottom end
Ls6 heads, cam, intake
Ls6 oil pump
ported throttle body
CTS-V R lifters
comp chromoly pushrods
60# injectors
LS7 clutch and flywheel
67MM garrett (soon to be upgraded to a masterpower T76 I have in the garage)

Those are the really big things, anything else you want to know just ask.

Oh i almost forgot, pictures.

What wheels are those?

Nice to see someone got away from the typical "I have an XXsecond GN with typical X+Y+Z mods done"
