Thanks. It has most of the right components - AME subframe, G-Bar rear, C5 brakes etc. The engine is a stock LS1 so that is why it comes up a little short on hp. To make good use of increased hp I think a minitub is needed and when I started the project that was more than I wanted to attempt.

I think most of the DFW cars we see are garage built, presumably due to the lack of shops that do that kind of work compared to the east and west coasts. I went to a local show a while ago, old school is still king here based on what I saw there.
