Great ride Brad for a great price. I had a 1999 GTX from SLP and a 2000 GTP coupe as well. Let me advise you to reconsider to "pulley" it down. Throwing a smaller pulley on an otherwise stock GTP can be very hazardous to the motor. Remember, it does not have an intercooler, at all. Typically, to drop the pulley from the factory 3.8" to say a 3.4" or 3.5" requires supporting mods like a good tune, typically headers, and exhaust. Anything beyond that requries at least a cam and/or intercooler. I speak from experience, trust me. If its your DD and you dont want to invest too much into it, leave it stock is my advice. Adding hp decreases the motor life and the trans life in those cars. 4T65E HD is a piece of junk just like the 4L65E, however, if left alone, it will last a long time.

 

Just in case you have not found an online forum for those cars yet, www.clubgp.com has been around for over a decade and is an excellent source for info, parts, tech support, etc.

I have no intentions of modding this car..I think it does have a 3.5 pulley on it from hat the guy told me..It does have a custome tune. I don't plan on hot rodding it and anyone who knows me personally can tell ya I won't..lol

Thats fine and I assumed you wouldnt be hot rodding it. I would just recommend getting someone with HPT or autotap or other scanning software to just make sure you arent seeing any KR with that 3.5 and make sure the tune is done properly. Just a precaution, because I've popped my fair share of L67 motors when everyone was learning things back in the day.
