The undercover or intercept car also has some weight reduction but it is off set by radio and other cop stuff. He has warned me about a couple of unconfirmed reports that a high performance interceptor is comming by next summer. According to him there will be no markings on the car to give it away. Camaro, Vette, Challenger?
2. Anybody who is in or around N.E. Ohio I reccomend going to Dick Bigelow Chevrolet in Parma Hts. I was talking to them after work and asked about a buyers premuim, his response "We have never charged a premium and never will!". Good news for anybody who can get there. Bad news they are not a huge mega dealer so you might not get one on the first day but to save 6-7-8k I think it just might be worth it.
3.75in exhaust. I guess Flowmaster won't be getting any more money from me.

It's funny how some people think police packages and police interceptors include some wild modifications to the engine or some huge engine that only police departments can buy, when in actuality they just consist of a standard production engine with the slight mods you listed plus an HD alternator (usually 160-180 amps to handle all the radio, lights, etc.).
I'll have to check Bigelow out. My uncle lives right down Broadview Rd, in Broadview Hts.
