    Nice base with the L98 mang!

    Plans sound good, will be loud as funk without the rear mufflers or resonator!

    I have a cammed ls1 with twin 2.5 and xforce mufflers (no resonator) and it is loud as hell!

    Gl with it man, should be pushing over 400rwhp when it's done smile.gif

    Thanks mate, yeah ive been reading the forums for long while now but only just signed up so ive seen yours
    posted and its very nice. Yeah the l98 was a big selling point for me. In regards to the exhaust it does still have
    small rear mufflers, it was a Hurricane loud system which had 4 mufflers but had center two removed and smaller
    ones on back, its loud on full throttle but no drone on freeway etc its great.

    Looks great, wish I had the 6.0L.

    Debaged looks nice and clean.

    Doesn't look like SSSL rears though, think you'd at least be tucking tyre on 18's.

    there definitely sssl, it only had ssl when i bought it. I would like it lower in the back but the exhaust already scrapes on everything.

    Thanks for the kind words man!

    Yeah if I get another Holden v8, it will be a 6.0 or bigger. The 5.7 doesn't quite make the same power, and the new Fg's are getting quicker lol

    I think you can get a tru trac for around the 2-2.2k mark. My rebuild was around $1400 with 3.7's and was offered to go tru trac for an extra $600

    Edit - As twincam noticed below, probably advisable to get shortened driveshafts too lol

    If you could read, It's says he bought it with it with the badge on there and it's getting changed. There for your comment is unnecessary
    Anyway I like it looks good smile.gif
