Going to use my custom LG, that has been in the car for a few years .
John & I see no need to change it , just going to degree it a little differently

Insert Homer Simpson giggle of anticipation! I look forward to this more than Homer looks forward to a pancake wrapped butter stick dipped in bacon fat and syrup!
 
Looks like we are all wasting our time... ECS is posting on youtube that they have a CAM ONLY that will deliver 500/500 to the wheels out of an LS-3 with no headwork... Hahahaha. Look up ECS DVL cam if you like. I offered to buy one but he's blocked me and erased my questions lol

Back to reality LOL... Can't wait to see pics, hear that beast and more manny!!!

The Vette is back on the lift . Although not much was done today (honey do list) on the vette , it is ready to take its new heart .

I will post up some pictures this week .

Thx

That's sweet!! I think that might have to be my next step for more HP
I am going to be running nitrous this summer so I might be looking to build a short block if it doesn't hold up to the spray

Soo jealous. Question... Is going to a steel block a sizable benefit in this case???
[mob][/mob]

Iron blocks are great for SC or turbo applications , but the aluminum blocks, with a good forged internals will stand up to spray as well as modified N/A applications .

I will be posting up some pictures Friday as I get started . Not much done since I brought the car in Saturday .

Ok here are the first few pictures ;

Fuel pump up-grade to the high flow racetronix and some new tunnel shielding.

Hey any body seen my engine


Old fuel pump coming out


New pump and old pump


Dedicated fuel pump wiring harness


New pump and harness installed : Note that I used factory torque stipe on the bolts just to make sure they will always be tight.


Tunnel side's are nice and shielded again .


Now as soon as more parts arrive I can continue

Thx
