Undercoated
Flowmaster exhaust
Engine swap to a 408-Desktop dyno says 495 hp and 475 ft lbs tq
Stage 3 700r4 tranny
Spicer heavy duty u-joints
rearend swap to a Strange 12 bolt-33 spline axles-4.11 gears
adjustable panhard rod
lca`s and lca relocation brackets
subframe connectors
driveshaft loop
tinted windows
new paint
new headliner
all interior paneling has been redyed
embroydered floormats
autometer tach and gauges
B&M Ratchet Megashifter

This spring its getting some Eibach Sportline lowering springs.
