I have been on Ebay and have not seen them. I figured they were 320 wheels. I am trying to find a set before Nov 20. The flat black looks killer,,,,well you know,,,,as well as a 16 inch rim can look killer! LOL No seriously though, thanks for the compliment, coming from you with your car is a real compliment. What size and brand tires you gonna use? MTs? Where did you get the spacers?

yes it made power initially, then it stopped making power after additional changes to exhaust and some other tweaking. then i bought a CL v12tt so it took a back burner. then i had a baby so all cars took a backseat. i still drive it sometimes but the car doesnt get the love and attention it deserves. soon (hopefully) i will be trucking the car up to TTM and let them finish the build and get it dialed in. swapped out cams to the kleeman and a few other modifications yet to go that i havent gotten around to installing. eventually ill finish this bad boy and post times. has only been teacked once with 20's on it and couldnt hook up.

havent left. life has just kept me so busy that i manage to forget about cars. between businesses, family, children, and all that comes with it ive been swamped. did get a chance to test an SL65 black series. now ive got the bug again. and to be honest with all the frustration of such a big build and the problems along the way ive grown tired of trying to isolate the road blocks preventing me from hitting my power numbers. i think i may have a bad throttle body. word tot he wise - do mods in stages so if there is an issue you can isolate the problem...
