How'd it go moving the engine forward?
I don't know if you noticed the 4t80e axle to crank c2c is 1" wider spread. ..

It went fine. Good clearance at the rack now. Its actually going to help us with firewall clearance for the rear header/ manifold.

Sweeeeet.

Soooo.... the head flanges and a bundle of snakes hotside....doooo eeeet

Medusa that ****

I was on a roll last night so I pushed the car in, stayed late and hammered out the turbo mount with Casey. We fabricated a drain mount for the big S475 to support the weight. Check this thing out!







We ended up going forward facing verse my previous idea for packaging reasons. Either way, I think it looks killer. Very happy with the outcome.

duuuuuuude.

you make some nice stuff.

Yes sir.. I like that a lot

Thanks guys. Its coming together pretty nice. I cant wait to see what this thing does on the track.

Awesome build! I'm sure this will make a huge splash in the LS community. On a side note any pics of the L67 Monte?

Made some headway last night with the exhaust manifolds. Decided for what I want to do this season, and to expedite the build...fabricating a set of headers just isn't on the menu.
I ended up using the stock front exhaust manifold. I cut the studs and flange stuff off, smoothed the outlet and welded a 2" stainless v-band to the end. The transition into the v-band is a perfect fit. For the rear manifold I ditched the stocker for obvious reasons and found that a passenger side truck manifold fit ok with some work. I chopped off the outlet right at the last primary and added a 2" sch10 transition that wraps around the transmission and reduces down to another 2" v-band. I am very happy with how they came out.






Now I just have to media blast/ coat them and build a crossover.

well well now if you ARE the nitrous store we might as well have some pics of the inside and store front aswell!!

It's long gone as far as I know or it just put back to stock.

Same with his LS4 monte carlo, blew the transmission and parted it.
