Seriously Steve…wow!

Absolutely beautiful car, exhaust work is perfect.

Successful 1st Start yesterday !!!
I have to say with all the things that could go wrong it went perfectly, not even a leak.

Stay tuned

awesome car

what are you planning to do with the old wheels?

The build came out great hopefully you'll get to drive it a bit before hockey season starts ...great build!

That's awesome, Steve! Glad it started well. Better hurry, it's already cooling off down here.

That steering wheel is awesome !

Thanks Marty ... this was a very tough decision as for the same amount of $$ I could have purchased an LT4. Building an LS3 Crossram is VERY expensive and now I know why most people don't do it. BUT, as you know I like to build sh!t that most do not. So yes I do give up some power Vs the LT4, BUT look at all the builds these days, all you see is LT4's.

I wanted to see something very special when you open the hood, and quite honestly I think we can all agree that the 'right' amount of HP for a street car is 500 whp and I am hoping that this is what we will see on Wednesday.

Cheers
Steve

:lol: :morepower:

I jest, 500 rwhp is a lot of fun. Good luck on the dyno.

Ok ... Off to Dyno, fingers crossed

That torque curve is a lot of fun!

Also, I stand corrected. Leaving the intake red was the right choice.

Car looks great, Steve.

Was going to post this elsewhere a while back but this looks like a good time for this question.
Who has the answer to keeping that steering wheel looking like new soft leather?
I love the soft satin look, but after repeated use the leather gets harder and buffed to a shine where you hold the wheel.
Any certain product or procedure to keep it looking new?

Morning all ...
Actually Skip, I've been waiting for today ! At 11:00 am I am officially unveiling the car to the local car enthusiasts, and a fine gentleman that is travelling from Michigan to possibly purchase the car.

Stay tuned, LOTS of pics coming ! This car turned out to be spectacular

Cheers
Steve

Thanks Skip for posting the video

Show was an absolute success, BIG thanks to Mike for driving 4 hours to get here and see the car, could not have been a nicer guy.

I'm pretty sure the car did not disappoint.

Getting the car ready ....
