Hey Talos,

If you are going manual to auto what are you planning to do with the manual setup? Interested in selling it?

If so, I am interested.

You guys are doing some nice mods, glad to here it. I'll be one of the slower guys at the track for sure. Don't want to mod the firehawk cause it's still under warranty. Not sure how long I will keep it but my girlfriend doesn't want me to get rid of it. She bought me new JL Audio amps and speakers for christmas to replace the Monsoon. My next purchase is the cd head unit, going with the Alpine IVA-D900 multimedia dvd station or save cash with the Alpine 7998. Neon lights will be mounted in the rear to accent the subwoofer and amps, call me rice if you must. I have Hotchkis 3-point stb to install along with SLP sfc's (bolt on), maf sensor, bellows, thermo 160' and fan control switch. I might go with some longtubes but I'm buying another home this year with my mom so I might sell my Mary Hill home or re-mortgage it for a new C6 vet. Get into real estate as soon as you can guys is my best advice after you leave your parents home.

I have in the past few months. I kinda gave some detailed stuff but not too much I hope.

- Bigger turbo = coated
- Bigger BOV
- External wastegate = coated
- Header = coated
- GReddy 720 injectors
- GReddy gauges
- GReddy BOV
- Custom tig sump in tank (powder coated)
- Aeromotive A1000 pump & bigger lines
- Aeromotive fuel filter
- Cusco diff = waiting from Japan and should be in so I can mount some slicks
- NOS purge kit in case I use the bottle. (I want to spray at least once)
- TRD bronze wheels from Japan = light weight 15 lbs each for front and 16 lbs each for rear
- Jacket for track (if I have slicks on )
- New and bigger SS intercooler piping
- CFX carbon headlight vent for headlight
- CFX carbon arm rest

Thought I would mention some lil parts too.


I am also waiting on a new spring for my wastegate to help hold the boost I want to run. I can only run 23 PSI right now but plan to run up to 28-30 PSI

Not much. Re and re the motor and hope I don't burn oil.

paint the engine bay and repair the rocker panel. Install payams seats and skinnies.

Then back to trying and getting things dialed in. I may end up going to the states to get it tuned. we'll see.

No flame paint this year. spent about $25,000 getting the basement finished this winter. - cool theatre system.

Well My biggest mod from last year is killing my Race budget.

Last years mod's
HOUSE!
Wife

So this year My biggest mod may be installing my 28# injectors So I can juice it again.

I have aquired many parts for the new motor. It is looking very strong but money has been tight with this crappy economy.

I have the following
Full forged 383 Reciprcating Assy.(may be for sale)
Brodix 18* heads
Hogans Intake
Fluidampr
SFI flex plate
many little parts

Looking to do 421 so new parts will be needed
Motown block
421 Recpricating
TD Shaft rockers
.180 offset lifters
Custom headers
New hood

end goal is 600+RWHP N/A with A/C and power windows.....Plus a 300HP shot!

OH YEAH! With a stock PCM

Good luck all!

Will your Brodix heads (reverse coolled) work with a Motown block?

When are you going to have this thing out? Also, what are you doing with your current LT1 heads?
