Big progress. I have the LS3 now and I'm prepping it for install. I swapped the oil pan to C6 Corvette and the damper/water pump to 5th Gen Camaro.11133747_10152739729156850_8284908929127081098_n.jpg

Added 4th gen engine mounts.

Mounted the 1991 Camaro EOP sensor using the block off plate from a C5 which worked out well. It just needed to be drilled and tapped for the new thread.

I installed a second coolant temp sensor to run the gauge.

Finished up some of the powdercoating I had remaining. I powdercoated the hood latch bracket and painted the latch mechanism satin black.

Thanks.Originally posted by deeznuts94 View PostOk, I have to apologize. I was one of the guys that was giving you a hard time about cutting up a rare 1LE car earlier in the thread. This thing is coming out amazing. Had I known that you were this meticulous about things I would have never. I cant wait to see more progress.
This is just the beginning.

RPM built 4L60 and converter arrived today.

I've been stopped on the car until the powertrain is ready. These are the expensive parts and I'm almost done collecting them.

It's a new harness from Howell Engine Developments specifically made for an E38 controller, 4L60, and the other components I'm swapping into the third gen.

Progress has slowed a little as the parts I need get more expensive. My 4L60 is sitting at RPM Transmissions waiting to be picked up. Today I picked up my new engine harness from Howell Engine Developments.

Temperature rating: -103º to 257ºF; will retain shape & rigidity while remaining flexible; melt temp is 482ºFOriginally posted by MP81 View PostThanks, I'll keep that in mind for future projects - looks far better than the typical plastic loom. Does it hold up to heat better?

I am definitely going to use that stuff when it comes time to do the 24x conversion on my car, looks great!
