You're going to beat me, hell my motor is out and I have my front end all ripped out

Got the mini latches in, they are awesome. Driveshaft finally. New slicks on, front runners balanced. Pressure transducer for fuel pressure and oil. Tach,battery and the stuff to do my fuel rails the right way. Aka feed back and off fronts to regulator.

Lifters and trays will be here next week. So can get the motor ready to put in.

New ls1 pan tapped and ready to roll. Boost control wires ran. Waiting on a fitting.

Hopefully another couple weeks. Or next weekend if I'm foggy.

I think I have everything on order, or sitting here ton finish it, and get it running. The lifters and trays are on backorder.

I'd like to finish the fuel system at the rails better, need a y and some fittings vs feeding the pass rail.from a crossover.

Got to install the catch can, wire up the alt charge wire, drill and tap my.new ls1 pan, gap the rings, slap it together and throw it all in. See wtf happens

Nice haul. I'm a few weeks from dropping my parts orders. My wife hates it when the boxes start rolling in and piling up because she knows I'm spending money but she also knows it means we are close to me heading home

It's like Christmas every day

[Sleeper]

Shit is about to get real, stay tuned.

[DON SVO]

Great progress, man.

Ljms stage two, Springs etc. Another part of the puzzle

[Sleeper]

Not much going on. Sold my aje coilover kit since the 175pound springs where not strong enough. I liked the strange coilover kit better than the aje so just ordered it all.

Got the 200 pound hypercoils, and the car actually feels like it has suspension now vs being damn near coilbind bind.


Did a ghetto alinement.


Also set pinion so I could measure for the driveshaft. Kept fucking up and turning the links the wrong way. After ripping them out twice and resetting them I marked them.

Learned that the proclassic hose will only do 15 pounds of vacuum and will collapse, so went with regular old booster d.o.t. hose.

Got my radiator hoses figured out finally only have 3 to return. Set pinion angle and figured out with the weight of the turbo kit etc on the front my 12 175 are not going to cut it. It's been so long I actually thought they where 14s lol

So sold the aje kit and have strange tube and strange 12 200 hypercoils in the way. Then I'll re set pinion angle one i get.my ride height back up to where I want it.

Also pissed at myself since I have the team z relocated uppers. Marked them etc still got em.all fucked up and had to take em out and re Center the rear end lol.

[Sleeper]

The one I have is 13700, at the time I think it was the biggest they had for remote. Those new ones look tits.

Mine is mounted on the bottom of the spare tire well. We will see how it does.

[KBScobravert]

Where is the transcooler mounted? Which one did you go with?

I'm about to order another Derale product. 15870 67,000 btu cooler with 10"fan. I might go back to a single 4" muffler and ditch all my aluminum 3" stuff. Then put the cooler in the driver's side muffler location.
