SWEET!

So whats for tomorrow?

[Lucky SOB]

lookin damn good brian. is the scraped/rusty area on the wheel well in the engine bay or where?

[meissen]

Tomorrow's plan is to finish converting everything to the LT1 k-frame. We decided we're going to put the lower a-arms, spindle, and upper a-arms from both sides of the v6 kframe onto the lt1 kframe. Brand new bushings, wheel bearings, etc.

Hopefully once we're done with that, we'll mount the LT1 to the k-frame and begin painting the under carriage.

The rusty area is the battery terminal on the passenger side wheel well.

It did but I got 30lb'ers. Steve said to just upgrade now - that way if my stock injectors couldn't handle the cam and tune that I'll already be set.

Pshhh you would of been fine dude, I am using my stockers with my setup and i have no fuel issues and it never back fires. Or bogs at power.

I will be using the 306 cam with them as well, I heard you can use a big cam with them as long as you DO NOT spray.

[meissen]

Haha well s'all good - atleast now I'll have the 30lbers and they'll be good.

B that was the most reading i have done all month, My eyes are burning but alas it was worth it This build is going to make me so jealous im pulling mine back apart when i do my 306 cam and Doing it all up like yours, That motor looks sick, how exactly did you paint the Bracket, and intake manifold, I painted mine but the paint scratches off if i hit it with a tool and touching it up looks bad, So when im all done with the cam im painting the intake blue instead of black.

Allright B I gotta say something. You gonna leave those pulleys like that? Kinda kills the nice clean lookin motor. I'm just sayin

Looking great!

I was wondering about the pulley's as well. Surprised he didn't order any dressed up ones.

Surprised he didn't order any dressed up ones.

And Steve, I just used high-temp engine enamel and sprayed many coats and then many coats of clear enamel over it.
