11 is gonna cause issues. 10 is plenty

11 is gonna cause issues. 10 is plenty

How so? Lots of guys run 17x11 ZR1s with some inner fender massaging.

pics of the mesh

The widest they come is 9.5", which has a 3" lip. I can do that with the stock width axle. 5" is the goal, and the more I look at them the more I lean away from them

do the billet specialties if you can swing it. not liking the other ones.

As of right now I'm pretty limited in wheel selection. Probably $1500 on the low end for built to order offsets like this.

So long 6.0, hope it works out well for you Ricky!

[hoogiesngrinderz]

6.0 is coming back, turned out not to be what either of us thought it was. I'm going to go pick it back up next week hopefully, along with the LS1 accessories and the transmission lines.



I do need help with some last little things. I need two of the 10mm bolts that hold the lower airbox, a set of clamps for the intake duct (only have one, the smallest one), and the grommet for the IAT sensor (assuming there should be one there). I also need one of the lower cushions for the radiator. How does the plastic cowl in front of the windshield attach? Oh, also two of the plastic pins that hold the air baffle to the air box.


A couple o2 sensors, some radiator hoses, and two u joints are on my parts store list. After I figure out what route to go for an engine it's just a matter of putting it back together. Cosmetic stuff can be done after I get it road worthy

[TylerT/AZ28]

how is it not?

[hoogiesngrinderz]

LQ4 not LQ9, stored improperly by previous owner - dirty cylinders with some rust on the walls and water in the pan. I'll strip it down and send it out to see what my machinist has to say.

Try lowes for the 2 10mm bolts (in the automotive section in the hardware)

[hoogiesngrinderz]

I have all sorts of bolts, I just want the correct OEM ones for air box

I need two more of these bolts holding the air box:

[mcalus]

I'm pretty sure they are just run of the mill fender bolts. Might save you a few bucks

[hoogiesngrinderz]

If Lowe's has them, I'm not against using them. Everything I have found so far is SAE

[Boost Addict]

Just want to thank Michael for what he is doing about the engine I purchased. Really a class act move. Wish all sellers could be like this.

[hoogiesngrinderz]

Ricky, I'm thinking Monday afternoon I will try to head over - if that works for you and the rest.
