Now you understand what it takes to get an LS motor in your car.. I feel your pain but in the long run it will pay off.. If it is to much for you.. I have a 406 SBC that will just drop right in!!

Enjoy it while it lasts Doc... :_paranoid

Keep your head up man, it'll all work out. Just remember you already have a sweet ride as is, so it will only get better! Your philosophy of one mod at a time is exactly how I am doing my Camaro also. In the next month or so I am swapping out the stamped factory a-arms for tubular ones and switching coil springs again. I am building everything else up first and then tackling the engine. It may take longer to get a finished product, but hey, are they ever finished anyways.

Dude, you are the best---I love it----:lol:

Doug

Trying buddy---glad to hear about your mods--that's very cool----do you have a thread going on your car?

Doug

Indeed!! Great talking to you today bro. See u soon.

Doug

Doug, I don't have a thread going on my car, I've posted updates when I've done some things though. I need to start a thread on it since I keep getting more done, as soon as I get my new parts I'm going to start an actual thread on my Camaro.

I demand an update on this car. :D

Well, I'll have some pics up--as painful as it is for me to do that---nothing major--I did get the OD working and the gas tank leak fixed from RTTC. The cork gasket around the top of the sending unit was the culprit on the tank. Obviously the vented gas cap ain't doing it's job. Spoke with John Parsons (II Much Fabrication) about his vent canister he offers. Got the plumbing setup for the vent (ran the line from the tank up into the trunk via bulkhead ---just waiting on the vent canister from JP. I know Todd runs a similar setup in his and has said it works great--no gas smell in the garage--which is beginning to wear me down. I'll click off some pics of the install---I know a couple guys here run JP's setup (Rupp and Shipka) and both have said it works great. Trying to get John to make a kit for those of us who run these tanks (Ricks and others) which would include the KN filter, and other misc items.

Other than that, got the parts coming from DSE to put back on the subframe--they will be here on Thursday--I will reassmble the sub with the new parts (upper control arm, new spindle and misc stufff) and then determine what I will do next. Most likely it will be the rearend---get the FAB 9 rear under the car with the third member I have for it---need to buy axles and brakes---working on getting the new Baer floater setup to avoid any knock back crap--but it's all spendy---1600 for the floater I believe--2000 for the brakes, another 350 for axles, probably another 500 to install floater, misc---blah, blah, blah---etc. So, you know me, watching for deals on such items--but how often do rear 14in Baer Pro Plus brakes show up?---haven't seen it yet. The LS3 is still sitting, have cam and springs for it to put in---

I bought the movie "Taladega Nights" and watched it today. Shake and Bake--LOL.
