Is that a manual trans???

I'll answer for stroker-ace. It is a 6 speed T-56 backing an LS engine.

He's got a thread about the build...you should check it out!

That looks great!
What make/model wheels are those, and did they come w/the turbo 6 logo?

 

[Brady]

Thanks alot!! I got them from OE Wheels, you wont believe it but it was $420 for the set! Check out the site, they are actually Mustang rims. I needed to use adapters to mount them but it all worked out. I had a local shop make me vinyl stickers for the caps, a little touch that made a big difference. They really pop out in person, I used black lugs also to keep the whole center area black. With the whole set-up 4 rims, 4 tires, lugs, adapters, cap sitckers I've got $1200 into it.....very happy with that!
