Not sure what it looked like before but sure looks GREAT now!

Stone on your home looks good too. I love stone homes.

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum. I also have a 2000 MY, an A4 vert. The 2000 MY C5 came with the best OEM cam for the LS1. Combined with the FRC and a 6 spd, your car has a lot of potential. With a totally stock internals engine, strategic boltons, and a tune, you have a mid 12 second car there, easily......

Welcome to the forums, and congrats on the nice FRC! It looks great! It will make a great daily driver (as long s you don't a lot of snow and ice). I hope the car brings you many miles of smiles. There's a ton of good info here on the forum, and people are always ready to help if you have any questions.
