Thanks - It needs a paint job and a new interior. Engine runs good for 120K. Definitely going to rebuild the transmission.

Borg Warner T5 world class or 700R4?
Tuned Port 305 under the hood?

BW-T5-WC is the manual, 700R4 is the auto. A small stall and some gears really wake those cars up. Long tubes and 3" exhaust also.
Sounds like a great car!

It has a Borla Exhaust System on it. I will be adding headers soon. Thanks for the advice!

Thanks - I had an 82' Z/28 with the cross fire injection. I've always wanted an lROCK - Z. It's going to be a nice addition to the family!

So after a couple of months the A/C went out and I decided to put an LS3 / 480HP engine in my IROC-Z. Project has taken a little longer than I originally anticipated. Here's a time line of some pics to show where I am today. Hoping to drive it within the next 30 to 60 days.
