tdaniely2's 1983 Chevrolet Citation This is My 1983 Chevrolet Citation "SS"

Why is it called an "SS" you ask ? You will see exactly why in the next few photos.

tdaniely2's 1983 Chevrolet Citation This photo shows the HELLA European Headlamp and Foglamp upgrade. From the outside, they appear to be plain SEALED beam lamps, but they have removable bulbs and currently have 200-watt Xenon bulbs (Actual wattage, NOT simulated)

tdaniely2's 1983 Chevrolet Citation This is the custom dual exhaust setup. These are STOCK mufflers from a Buick Park Avenue Ultra. I prefer the QUIET approach, as I use this car for an everyday driver & family use car.

This is the heart of my Citation. I've installed a 3.8L Supercharged V6 high an aftermarket supercharger pulley that boosts supercharger output to 15psi. A custom chip keeps spark knock to a bare minumum and the polished cold air intake makes sure only COOL air gets pulled into the supercharger. The engine is suspended on it's cradle using Custom Polyurethane Engine mounts from West Coast Fiero in California.

tdaniely2's 1983 Chevrolet Citation This view shows the functional AC system, which most components had to be relocated to fit the 3.8L engine, and the custom polished cold intake.

tdaniely2's 1983 Chevrolet Citation The "SS" emblems were purchased new from the local Chevrolet Dealership. They are meant for the 2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS.

I dunno, not bagging on you, but putting that series II in the Citation seems a little to me like polishing a turd. I'm just sayin'.
