I never new they went beyond that, are there any numbers of the amount they may have produced. If I remember they only made something like 175k k-codes. but that does sound like a lot I...

    Was it just a standard k-code, 289/ 271 horsepower or in shelbys hands just over 300 horsepower, or was it something entirely by itself?

    Graziano Transaxle Installation

    Graziano Transaxle Installation

    LS7 vs LS3-480 or 525

    We opted for the ls 376/525 hp with the grazziano. We have plenty of fast track cars and wanted somthing more streetable [it is supposed to be my wifes car] This is a combination Fran recomended and I agree with him. It will be easy enough to make it faster if she desires. With miner tuning my...
