My LSx Coupe Build

The fuel system was not cheap by the looks of it and the whole car just says "I dropped some serious coin in it".
Your car looks sick!

I really appreciate that. It has taken me 7+ months to get it where it's at now and quite a bit of money. Hearing it fire for the first time was awesome. This weekend I plan to get it all bolted up and hopefully really have some payoff. I don't have many friends that are into cars, and the few that I do have are off having families, work too much, or live too far away. With the exception of getting a hand here and there everything you see I did out in my garage, listening to Pandora, by myself. It is very rewarding seeing the project come close to a usable point.

Congratulations, beautiful looking ride! Enjoy it to the fullest!

Got most of the bugs worked out this weekend.

List of resolved issues:
o2 sensors wired to wrong bank
one o2 sensor was actually plugged in backwards
forgot vacuum line to modulator on transmission
didn't realize that the pcm drops a ground (not +) to the relay for electric fans
brakes had a LOT of air in them, started applying themselves after first drive (had to bleed them)

remaining items:
tach needs a "booster" wire (+ w/680ohm 1/4watt resistor) to work w/autometer tach
need to raise the rear of the car up, the 28's are having some rubbing issues
need to replace leaky summit bulkhead and -12 fitting (for the second time), should be here tomorrow.

so far i have about 5 miles on the setup and have burned through 2 gallons of gas haven't had a chance to really kill it yet, but it feels very healthy on little part throttle punches.

Figured this thread could use an update.

Where'd you mount the LS computer?

[dville_gt]

I bought a PCM mount for an S10 truck I believe, it was like $10 new from GM, then I put it in front of the driver side strut tower.

Come out to the DFWM summer cruise at the end of May at Kdale. Hoping to get some tuning in at the track this weekend (was supposed to go Sunday but it rained out).

Looks good. I know a guy with a LS2/T56 in a silver coupe. The dude is fucking cool as shit and the car will surprise the hell out of you with how quick it is.

I know that same " dude " .... Last I heard though he was too scared to drive it any more.......
