I agree on dumping the true duals, especially in Cali. How in the world do you pass any visual or sniff-test in that state I think it would be much more sleeper if you put a nice catback (Corsa, etc.) and then did the center exit setup. Now that would be sexy with a 427 thumpin through the pipes Either way, you have a nice car and project !

Just curious why you went with an L92 block? Also curious about cost.

motor + install was around 14k. Theres another 7k in various other supporting mods.

I chose the L92 cuz its was less money to get more performance vs. LS2 402.



Fired up the 427 today. Hopefully will bring it home tomorrow.

Once you click the link, click on the "watch in high quality" link on the bottom right, right below the video.
