James:

I believe they are:

Rear wheels 17X11
Rear Tires 315

Front Wheels 17X9
Front Tires 275

I think this is correct. If I find out any differences, I'll post them.

Good luck...

Regarding the Engine.
Probably a bit less, "Thunder", as I need to change the Cam Shaft to something that will allow enough Vacuum to run A/C. Texas in the Summer is just to Damn Hot not to have it.

I should know about the shifter, but at this point I do not have the specifics.

I believe it's a TKO 500 w/ 5 forward gears.

I probably sound like a ditz, but there are some many individual items I can't easily pull them off the top of my head yet.

One of the major things I was interested in was having a good solid car that as already mini-tubbed, and had the 3-link already installed

Yes, Jim really took the time to make sure I had all the information I needed to make a good choice.

He sent out material swatches as well so I could see and feel the different materials.

With a bad back, I'm really looking forward to having nice comfortable seats in something I drive.

They will be the Recaro, "Style Topline", Series with Black Leather and a Red Leather insert.

Yes, I did tell him about being a L-G member, and as a result, he DID work out a deal that I'm very satisfied with.

I hope sometime in the future I can get to know him better. He is very interesting and smart.

He is dedicated to his business and will obviously be producing more great products for this Hobby in the future.

I'm interested in watching his 2nd Gen Camaro get finished off. It to should be a killer ride.
