Dry sump for LS2

Just an idea Steve, since you are getting a new crankshaft for the new motor why don't you get it with an LS7 snout to run the LS7 oil pump, timing chain cover, oil pan, & run an aftermarket oil tank!!!! The harmonic balancer should also work with your current drive you have?? If not just get an ATI dampner & we will machine a crank pulley for you.. If I was building an LS motor from scratch.. This how I would do it :D GM spent a good chunk of $$$ to develop this dry sump system!!

Still have my shipping address???? lol I only see one problem. Since they are thicker where the bolts go through it might hit my DSE closeout panel. As it is I have to use rounded allen bolts and they still almost touch. Ideas?

Those are so sweet.. you're really making some nice stuff Cris. We are doing a billet guide and you should feature something very unique like this in it. I will call you about it. Get that website done! ;)

As for your brake line clamp. After seeing this I will never again weld brake line tabs to a housing. With these I can rotate and slide them to just the right spot. Here's a shot:

I will have to see what we can do to to clear The DSE close out panel.. I have one here @ the shop..

Thanks for the compliments on the billet stuff!! Let me know when guys are doing the feature story & will get you what I have.. Now I have stop crusing the forums & get back the txt for my website.. That is my hang up with the site :)

x2 :D .

would adding some of the Nelson racing throttle bodies see over 700bhp on that engine spec?

This car is like a supermodel. Every thinks it's the sexiest thing in the world and couldn't be more perfect...but someone somewhere isn't happy with it.

Got a couple of Best Of Show spy shots today of the new inner fender wells..
