I did close to the same thing as Brian except I mounted the cooler to the airdam itself.

Thanks for the pictures guys it helps alot. How do you route the lines? Does the cooler come with lines and fittings? Do you branch off the stock cooler or not use it at all? What size did you guys get?

Great build thread, it is nice to see somebody else save an LT1 car. And all the little things you are doing will make this car mint

Thank you very much. I sure hope it's up to my expectations when all said and done!!!

Anyone have a hook up on tires?

275/40/17's -2 of them
295 or 315/35/17's

New or used. Cheaper the better.

I went from the Trans to the stock cooler in the radiator to the B&M cooler back to the trans. My cooler came with an assortment of lines and hoses.

I cant stress enough that you want the biggest cooler you can physically fit in the area you have to work with. Mine is something like 6x11 and its to small for where I had it placed IMO. My new cooler will be more like 11x1 with a 750CFM fan.

Installed the driveshaft lastnight. My torque arm is twisted so bad, need to upgrade asap

I have a stock one in good shape if you need it to get you by while you're saving for an aftermarket one.

Thanks for the offer. I still have my stock one too but I just wanna upgrade as soon as possible

[birdie2000]

Oh ok, I thought it was damaged and unusable since you said it was twisted up.

Ohhhhh I thought you were referring to the trans cooler lol. In that case I might hit you up on that. I'll let you know. Thanks Jim!

[birdie2000]

Oh, yeah sorry should have mentioned which part I was referring to, lol.

I would use a break in oil for the first time of starting a motor until the rings are seated. At work we always use Brad Penn break in oil for fresh motors.
In the next few months i want to become a sponsor here to make it more well known that we distribute this oil. As they sell a equivalant of mobil 1 for much less money.

There isn't alot of mark up on tires. Usually it is cheapest to buy them from tirerack or discount tire direct.

Brian, it sounds like you'll be heading out this way this weekend to being some break in oil and adjust my rockers so we can get this b%&ch started?!


Just ordered the trans cooler.

Its a possibility. I am planning to go to grand rapids on Saturday.

Got the cooler in today. They gave me a free 5 hour energy, maybe they are implying something lol
