Welcome! Sorry to hear about your crash, holy crap we're glad you're OK! Your car is Beeeeeyootifulllll! You made an excellent choice. I love black Montes. Had one for exactly 3 yrs and then it was totaled in a crash. I'm still mourning, but the silver 07 has made a nice replacement. Look forward to you're future posts and pics!

I had to "stealth" my Intimidator emblems. The cops kept coming up on my rear FAST, just to check me out! That's why my emblems are black, "Stealth Mode". Had it only about a month or two before I did that.
Got any mods planned?
First mod is to transfer the license plate from my Vette. TIKIT-B8 I am very familiar with modding the L98 in the vette but this supercharger engine will take some reading up on. I may check into getting a custom chip burned if it will help. I thought about a set of magna flows but I'm not sure how they'll sound just tooling around town. For now I'm just enjoying not having to shift gears.

Well my head was sore after putting it through the plexiglass roof and my back ached from the hard landing but all is well now. I guess I'll go through my garage and see what Corvette paraphernalia I can put on e-bay.[sm=type.gif]

1) Tin corvette sign. "Corvette, it's a state of mind"

2) Rear fascia emblem, unused. (came in after the car was totaled

3) Corvette wall clock. Chimes on the hour with different engine sounds.

4) sunshade for plexiglass roof

5) CD case with Corvette logo

6) GM service manuals for 1988. Both mechanical and electrical books.

7) Gas filler door bowtie emblem

More as I clean the garage.

The #1 site for performance parts is [URL=https://www.zzperformance.com/grand_prix/index.php]] ZZPerformance.com
They are the current record holder in the 3800FWD class, at 8.65,159 in the 1/4. Im at 315 bhp with just bolt ons, but its easy to get more than that if your willing to add a cam and an intercooler. Its all about the tuning with these, controlling spark knock. I drove an Intimidator to a friend that dynoed at ZZP at 336 whp. That car is currently for sale. He wants a Vette.
There are other sites, such as Intense-Racing.com
The Monte Carlo Store (pfyc.com)
Andys Autosport.com
w-bodystore.com
and others.

not quite sure whats going on with ZZPerformances link, but it works.
