Thought I would post pictures of the project me and the pops have been working on. This is the LT1 out of his car, it was in alot better shape, less miles and some performance upgrades already. It had 1.5 CC RR's, custom bored 52mm TB, and a set of double springs with dampner but with out the inner spring. We put in a CC 510/520 230/236 @ 50 Hydralic cam, CSR Electric water pump, CC's rev kit, and Hooker LT's. This goes along with a K&N CAI, ORY, TLCC coil per cyl converter, and adjustable pressure regulator. Here are some pics. The parts you see were powder coated by us. New machine our first time doing it.... Oh and the Hooker LT's were sprayed by a local machine shop with an Aluminum spray that will never wear off, thats why they look white. I did this for the life of the headers and it seems like the aluminum would disipate more heat.

 

Looks nice, not all dirty like mine was lol. Hope it runs as good as it looks, it should

 

Forgot to mention it will be with a madz28 tune. I hope it runs as good as it looks too.

 

Purdy....

 

Where did you get the throttle body plate?

 

My pops made it by hand out of a piece of aluminum he had.

 

Great job! Looks like you and your Dad had a good time putting that baby together- you should be proud man! Keep us posted!

Looks good. If you give him a call and tell him exactly what you want, it'll turn out good. I seriously think ION(madz28) put my car in the twelves.

 

I think I'll do that this afternoon (thats if it hasnt been shipped yet).

 

you just need some blue on there. lol

 

Looks nice, I wish I had the skill level to craft one like that.

 

We fired it up last night and today we did some tuning on it. Still havn't got a y-pipe for it so I had to take some pictures and videos of it since it just sounds too good. Oh and I had to update my mods list in my sig...


Here is a video with pictures and video/sound clips in it...

How'd ya drop the engine out? Have access to a hydrolic lift?

 

Out the bottom. Easiest way IMHO. No lift, just jacks and jack stands high enough to drop the bottom out on two jacks and roll it out from undernieth.
