Looks impressive!

I'm going to say this with all the sarcasm I can find. Looking at your tires... do you think they might break loose? :wink:

Someone once came up with the perfect, technical phrase to describe the difference between 3.42 and 4.11 gears. It's all about the "Yee-Haw!" factor.

Your "Yee-Haw!" factor is going to be off the scale!

Happy cruisin'

Cheers,
Ken

Well, long story short, oil pressure dropped (likely bad pump) and spun a bearing last summer.
Good news, got an LQ4 (currently being built ) :
Heres the crusty old LQ4 pre any beauty :

-Install cam from the LS1 (Comp - .617/.612 231/234 113LSA)
-Send heads out for cleaning/inspection
-Install my Brain Tooley valve train off the LS1
-Swap over my headers
-Swap over my intake manifold
-Clean and paint block
-Swap over my valve covers
-Get it mated to the T56 and into the car
-Burnouts
==
Also have been collecting some parts :
-Got some lowering springs that will be installed when motor is going in.
Also :

Got some used headlights and did the Whistler Mod :

Can't wait to get the LQ4 painted and cammed and back in so I can start with hood and rim install.
