Piecing it together

[yepes281]

Few pics of how the car sat before the build.

Freshly installed pusher fan.

Horribly rigged IC piping, its a pain in the ass, going to be re-routing it.

My intercooler thats been beat to shit, out with the old.

In with the new. Its big

New shiney

NOW for the good stuff.

Delta 272 cams, cometic head gasket, ARP head studs.

Manley .020 stroker pistons

Manley rods

SBR LSD insert

Thanks to viperlp01/John Whalen at Strictly Import Performance for hookin my up with the stroker parts!

Now just waiting on a crank



Finally got the motor pulled

Will be going to Westside Performance tomorow

dont use the lsd insert, try and get a real diff, ### you need to think how the inserts work, over time because of the friction theres all these little metal shavings that come off which can damage components in your trans

I've noticed a lot more shaved valve covers lately. I guess I'll need to step up to the next level with mine. How easy are these things to crack? Hope that doesn't give away my next idea.

I wanna get a true lsd, but there is no way i can afford it. And since this is a DD i cant weld the differential, as much as i dont want it, im pretty much stuck with the insert.

Just today i rerouted the ic piping, went flawlessly. This is the first time ever something has gone this smooth. Il take pics tomorrow. After that im just waiting for a pay check so i can order my crank, and then take it over to west side performance in Houston to get everything installed
