:peepwall:

Looks good I'd love to do that type of suspension on my car.

Bad Ass build, Buddy! Very happy for you...keep this pace going!

I have had a few people ask about what we did for Curtis's engine

here are the details and engine porn :

We started with a low mileage 08' L76 6.0L Gen IV aluminum block, refreshed with new Clevite bearings, rings, etc
-#823 GM rectangle port cylinder heads, resurfaced (just clean up)
- installed PRC .650" dual valve spring kit w/ titanium retainers
- Comp Cams trunion upgrade kit installed in GM rocker arms
- Comp Cam grind 226/234 dur. 598/601 lift 113+2 LSA
- TSP 7.400" .080 wall pushrod set
- GM LS2 HD timing chain and gear set
- GM LS7 lifter set w/ LS2/3/7 lifter trays
- GM MLS .054" head gaskets
- ARP head bolt set
- GM new LS2 timing cover/ sensor kit
- LS2/3 valley cover
- GM Corvette harmonic balancer
- ARP crank balancer bolt
- Melling hp oil pump
- GM LS2/3 Corvette oil pan kit
- GM LS3 intake manifold assembly, with fuel rails, 42# injectors
- LS2 "Silverblade" 90mm dbw throttle body
- powder coated black LS3 valve cover set w/ stainless fasteners
- GM LS3/7 coil packs w/ factory brackets, stainless fasteners
- AC Delco spark plug wire set and iridium spark plugs
- -4AN steam ports
- all new sensors (ie crank, cam, map, maf LS3/7, knock)

with this setup and tune, we are estimating approx 530-550hp/ 520 tq @ crank (450rwhp/ 420rwtq)

He wanted a great n/a engine that didn't "break the bank" have plenty of power that could be daily driven running the a/c or head out for track events, without the drive-ability issues associated a "overbuilt" engine for mainly street use

Jeff

Now you're cookn with fire!! :hello:

That's a very simple, effective, and durable build. You're going to love it Curtis! Glad to see everything coming along nicely.

Yup. Really looking forward to getting the car put together and on the road. Jeff's engine is similar (bigger CAM) and it's awesome. If I hadn't decided to have the paint and body work done, I'm pretty sure I'd be terrorizing the streets of Vegas at this very moment.

Hurry up already!

I have 98% of the parts needed to finish it. Just need to get the car out to paint and body. If all goes right, it'll be back here around SEMA 2015. :confused59:

I'd love to have something to play with between now and then, but....

That motor will be a lot of fun Curtis,looking good.How's the body work coming along?
