    Well, a unique opportunity came up and I acquired a 2005 Cadillac CTS V. This year had the LS6 and T56 6 speed transmission. It’s pretty clean, but it does have its quirks as you’d find in any 15 year old vehicle. Plans for this include bolt on stuff and nothing too crazy.

    Mods:
    Magnaflow Cat back
    LS2 throttle body
    LS7 flywheel and clutch
    Diff brace
    Upgraded T56
    DSS 1 piece drive shaft

    Planned:
    Long tube headers: To be installed by Biddle Motorsports 3.5.20
    Cam and valve train: In hand
    CS Short shifter
    8.8 Cobra diff: In hand
    8.8 Cobra 3.73 R&P: In hand
    8.8 TB iron housing: In hand
    8.8 modified diff cover: In hand


    As purchased on 02.16.20
