I would be interested to see your plumbing from the side of the block from the Holley thermostat piece up to the radiator. I'm interested in how you routed it and what you used to transfer the oil.
Thanks! |

The Dutchboys are done with the final block sanding. Now it comes apart to get put on the rotisserie to prep the bottom and the firewall.

Working on cleaning up the wiring on the LT5 crate harness. The LT5 uses 2 ECMs.
Lots of wires https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3d969b4c05.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e1bffb55c0.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...edcb43572a.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...bd2a6d14b9.jpg Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That's what I'm wondering, too, Simon. I didn't realize these engines had two ECU's

The 2nd ECM S53 is basically a slave ECM that drives the 8 extra Port Fuel Injectors. It is controlled by CAN messaging from the primary E99 ECM. The engine calibration lives in the E99 ECM. This is needed because a LT5 has 8 Direct Injectors and 8 PFI injectors. HP Tuners has cracked into the ECM so now you can tune it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I ask because just yesterday I contacted a custom emblem manufacturer about having some valve cover medallions made with "LS-3" engraved on them. I was told LS-3 is GM trademarked, and they were asked not to reproduce it. I was shocked. |

We made them one off. Not sure if LS3 is copy righted or not. We just did it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Thanks Mark. I guess I need to find a "renegade" CNC guy. Any ideas where I can get a couple 3" x 1-5/8" CNC machined medallions made would be appreciated.

Contact Shawn at EVOD or Jonathan at Sparc Industries. Either one of them will make you whatever you want made. |

The car is at paint and the Dutchboys are doing a great job.

Camaro LT5
We dumped the engine at Katech. Runs solid and made 915 HP and 870 ft*lbs. We ran into an issue with the HP Tuners tuning capabilities. We need access to some tables that do not have. It is dropping boost at 6400 RPM. I’m sure the engine will make 950 HP once we get that sorted.

I make 702rwhp on E50 in my daily driver (2nd gen CTS-V, manual transmission) and 580rwhp on 91octane. Even with drag radials and 4200lbs, the car will light off the top of 3rd gear on ethanol. On Pilot Sports it'll sometimes light off the top of 4th, which is... entertaining if you stay in it. I can't imagine a 200 TW hooking below 100mph at 950hp and low 3000lbs :) |

No traction control, all by just straight up driver control. I have road raced a lot of cars with more power on 200 tread wear tires with no issues. I would not let anyone else drive it but it works just fine. Yes you can do roll on burn outs in 3 rd gear! Good stuff! [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Beautiful. Can't wait to see it in person!

Small detail. Tuned up the blower lid.

Looks good! I'm not that familiar with the way they are stock. Are the fins and lettering not exposed aluminum already? Probably not, being hidden under that big CF cover!
Nice detail that certainly adds up with all the other subtle touches you've done. |
Dutchboys are getting close to putting the stripes on it.

Beautiful. Love your logo in the gauge startup.
What is the actual color you wound up using? |
Getting close to coming home ?????
