    hey got some new wheels, what you guys think. went from a drag look to more of road race look. and i have a question about the 4 speed SROD, i know its not very strong but if i drive it normal and don't power shift and drop the clutch at three grand will it hold up?

    nice looking wheels .... kind of like the old mini-lites that used to be common in Trans-Am

    Looks very sharp! The blacked out bumpers and trim look great on your car.

    Thanks guys for the responses. yeah they look like mini lites without the mini lite price. Streamliner, your car is awesome.I actually had a pic of it as my desktop backround at work and it got a lot of complements from coworkers. would like to put a 4 speed in it and i have that SROD sittin around just not sure its worth going thru the trouble to put it in if its too weak.
