What is with the cooler mounted on the fuel tank? Is that going to cool the fuel?

Yes, Scott is correct. It is the rear diff cooler with oil transfer pump.

Looking good Billy. Can't wait to see the assembly start. Sure you don't want to trade for mine? :rofl:

Is that a charcoal color? What did you spray on the underside?

I guess I missed the engine change. What happened to the LS3?

I just read the VVT comparison on this motor in Hot Rod - pretty cool stuff!

MarkM66 05-19-2010 08:31 AM

What are the engine specs?

wiedemab 05-19-2010 09:09 AM

Billy - correct me if I'm wrong, but....
 
I think this is the engine that he's using.
