Before the newer LT1 was installed, Replaced every single gasket or seal in and out of this motor, Installed a Crane 104227 camshaft, (Perfect cam for these cars)
Installed new Crane Gold Full Roller Rockers,Installed New GM Opti Spark, New Taylor spark plug wires and new spark plugs, Installed composite LT4 Valve covers, Fully ported intake (that included runners and throttle intake holes) to accept the New 52 BBK throttle body, installed a new Jegs High Flow Electric Water Pump, New GM timing chain ( while I was in there) and new 9c1 Oil cooler lines and a new radiator. A/C drier and all o-ring / orifice tube was replaced. Custom made Cold Air Intake with K and N type Filter.
A new PCM was sent to PCMforeless and flashed to make this car run correctly, shift correctly, and the speedometer to be accurate.
Suspension- Installed Hotchkis Springs that lower it, Huge Front and Rear "B-Body Performance" Sway Bars with all new bushings, 4 new Monroe SS Police shocks and replaced the lower ball-joints with Moogs oversize. UMI Extended lower and Upper control arms to center the rear wheels, plus make it handle so much better. This is the best suspension set up for these cars.
Wheels and Tires- New 17 inch Black Powder Coated Wheels with newer tires 275/40/17 in rear. All weights are on the inside.
Exhaust- New Ceramic Coated Headers (Tri-y/ SLP Custom made) These are the best headers anyone buy. Coating is guaranteed for 5 years,- 2.5 inch stainless steel x-pipe-new dual exhaust with MagnaFlow 2.5inch stainless steel mufflers. THIS CAR IS NOT LOUD WITH THE X-PIPE, JUST A VERY NICE DEEP TONE.
Rebuilt the complete interior with grey, used to be maroon. Purchased parts from everywhere to have everything in grey. Dash is perfect, door panels are in great shape, and all the window rollers have been replaced with new round ones, headliner was replaced with new grey one, Radio is a aftermarket, new pioneer speakers, and custom made center console with cup holders. True 96 9c1 seats and seat belts. I deleted all the wood grain and install black impala ss door bezels. Carpet is from low mileage Roadmaster and is in great shape, no holes, rips, or tears. I added a rear view mirror that displays the outside temp and a compass in the top left corner of the mirror.
I REMOVED FLOOR MATS FOR PICS OF INTERIOR AND CARPET TO GET THE TRUE IDEA OF HOW NICE THIS CAR IS- FLOOR MATS WILL BE INCLUDED WITH THE SALE.
I coated the entire bottom on this car while drive-train was removed with a a product call ZERO-Rust, so this car would never rust.
Brakes are stock but with new pads.
I installed new fuel pump just because I thought ti made need it.
All gauges interior lights, dash lights, ect work great, has great oil pressure, and is very fast.
I don't race and never go to the track, but this car is very fast and handles like a very expensive car.
Exterior of car looks shiny and very good, but it does have a few small door dings in the driver side front fender and normal wear and tear for a old police car.
I get compliments every time I drive this car with the way it looks and the sound of the engine. I installed 4 DCM original door handles, lower rocker moldings, and front grill, from a 96 impala ss. Made a custom rear truck key hole cover that looks very good. Car leaks nothing and needs nothing.
I have been a Police Officer in St. Louis for 17 years and currently work nights, and also a decent mechanic during the day. I build these cars for fun, and never take shorts cuts or buy cheap parts.

How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.

The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
