Its coming out nice ! :thumbsup:

I got some sweet bling in the mail and it's been a while since I've been able to get to it, but LED's are the way to go. They are so much brighter and clearer, not to mention the bezels look hella sweet compared to the dusty old ones. I got mine from Eddie Motorsports, the same place I got my hood pins, latch and hood hinges.

Just noticed that I hadn't replaced the flasher yet so the it looks like the brakes are on full all the time. Funky stuff happens I guess when you try to install LEDs with the correct flasher.

Back from the bling trip and now on to the business end of things.

The engine bay is D-D-D-DOOONNNNE!! YYEEAAAH!!

Almost ready to fire it up, just waiting on a transmission. Then onto the front half of the carpet and put the torque arm back in and it's time to drive this summabich! :D

Not too bad for a psychotherapist with 11 thumbs and no patience. LOL

Looks really good, well done with the install. I'm sure you'll have some LS swap pointers for us soon ;)

You never know, I might have one or two :lol:

UPDATE 4-29-12

I was able to find some time between work and my anniversary to get my transmission put in.

I got me a Tranzilla!! MUUHAHAHH!!!

It's basically a modified Tremec Magnum by Rockland Standard Gear.

Gear ratios:
2.97 2.07 1.43 1.00 .80 .50

It's built with carbon rings in gears 1 through 4 and a viper tailshaft/extension.

I'm so god damned stoked for this I can't take it. This thing shifts so damn nice it's crazy! Can't wait to actually drive it and shift it for real HAH!

They told me that this combo is good up to 1,000ft lbs, so i'm really ready to upgrade that motor when it gets a little too "slow" hehe.

The only problem I ran into was the cross member that comes with the speed tech frame. The Viper tailshaft is a lot lower than the stock T56. Had to add some extensions between the crossmember and the frame. Good thing this frame has so much room to play with I didn't really have to modify squat. Really makes things a lot easier, that's for sure. I need to change out the TH400 tranny yolk with a 30-spline viper version. Anyone have a spare one? *hint hint*

The car is going off tomorrow to the painter to get the hood painted, alignment and a few touch ups to some scratches I made. By then the rest of the stainless exhaust should have shown up so we literally only have that left and the car is ready to be driven!!

Ok, car went off to paint today... Except it didn't go so well. I was so full of myself that i didn't bother to look at the obvious flaw, the ride height. Pretty sweet stance though, eh?

Ride height wasn't set yet and we had a bit of a rub .... well... all over. LOL

In the spirit of full disclosure, I did manage to get the car stuck on the world's smallest curb... in front of my house. haha

And then it was off to paint and alignment.

She looks good outside. Looking forward to seeing, and hearing... it in person.

Looking bad ass! :thumbsup:
