Complete exhaust, h&r drop springs, tce kit, cam, crank. Mabey wheels with big brake kit but I have to wait till October when I get bake from the dessert.

Eh. I plan to just use my winter car to jump it once I need m/want to start it. :)

I just can't wait to start the engine build and get the custom lim made for my top secret project

Top secret huh....

Don't see this top secret build being more exciting than Kyle's blueprinted stroker or nickg's turbo over on gagt... Nick's had a reverse mounted 3500uim... friggen crazy!!

Have a bunch of stuff coming from a Holden builder in Australia. Wasn't going to go that far this year but this guy knows LS builds like no one I've met yet, and is working with me for every step of the build. Should get the order in this week for the custom grind cam. Not going too crazy as I'm keeping the car fairly streetable. Not giving away too much, but if you know your cams you will be able to decipher the hint, car is getting a 3600 stall to make it work properly. This summer should prove to be very interesting once its all together. Getting pretty excited. Picking up the rest of the install parts tomorrow for my brothers cam install too... we should be into his in the next two weeks and have him up and running long before spring thaw. Hoping to have his together and out of the way and have time to do mine before car season is upon us again! So, I'm about to embark on my second car build, I missed this feeling I tell ya!!!!!

Hahaha... Nice Paul!! I got a joy ride in the Grand Am, cant wait for a follow up in this beast after she's built!!
I will be getting my maf by the end of next week, and just waiting on the motor quote to get that done as well...
This is going to be a fun summer again as long as everything gets done in time!! :)

Very nice paul. I want dyno numbers. And once spring comes along. We can get my tuning out of the way. Atleast until I add something else ;)


As for me.... things are coming along slowly but surely. Lets see.....

- strut mounts replaced.
- struts have been reinstalled.
- picked up 2 more bbs wheels last week. (Now have complete set.) :)

- mount the tires to the other 2 wheels. (2 already mounted as you have seen)

- get 4 qts of trans fluid from GM.
- Take axles in to get boots replaced.
- got myself inner tails today.
- find a set of outer tails
- get alignment.
- finish tuning.
- and of course piece the car back together.


Getting closer every week.... im just ready for spring. I miss her.

I hate to put a hex on anyone, but I kinda need this winter to drag out a little so I can get everything done. LOL If spring breaks early I'm going to loose my mind if the car is not ready

^^ agreed... I have so much on my list to get done, I could use the extra time as well... thought the list was supposed to get shorter, not longer :P

I'll hve to post a pic when the motor is done I will say it's going to be a bit of a Frankenstein setup though

Interested to see it.

Yeah I'm torn on the color I can't make up my mind either color match to the rest of the car or all black

Depends on color of car.

It's the dark blue

Hmm dark blue motor or black would look pretty good either way

Black with red accents would get my vote. I like a blue/red combo but not big on an all red engine, just would not look right to me

Where did a red engine come into the story here? :lol:

I don't think red would go well with the dark blue

Got one of my Corvette fuel rail covers yesterday. Spent a good part of the afternoon modifying and installing it. Came out awesome! The other one should come this week. Looks like the one I'm waiting on will be a lot easier to install. My bro and I have decided to wait for some warmer weather for our cam installs. Kinda bummed about it, but its the right way to do it, he's right. Sometimes a little brother can speak with reason you know... sometimes, hahhaaha
