:thankyou:

You're in good hands. Pete does awesome work and he's good people. I dig the front valance on your car. The washers where part of a run a buddy did for a build he is doing. He was nice enough to do enough for me. Hope I don't need anymore. :rolleyes:

But really all i know is righty tighty, lefty loosey.

That's the plan. It'll be slow going at times, but that's ok.

since you changed to ls7, I assume your converting to wet sump so you dont have to find a place to mount the oil tank?

I think he already made a trip to the painters to mount the tank.

Had to pickup all the stainless trim and the rear bumper and haul them to SoCal to be refurbished and took the tank with me. Jim and I mocked it up and cut a hole in the passenger side inner fender, where the battery would normally be. I wish I could have used the stock tank as its brand new,,but it would have hung out the bottom of the car. I pretty much copied Scott G. And what he did on his 69 and used a setup from Peterson Fluid Systems that was designed by ATS back in the day.

Mike, I tried to convince him to let me convert it to a wet sump setup, prior to me assembling it, but no luck
Just more work and $$$ now

Good decision Curtis, I like it dry sump.

I've heard good and bad with wet sump ls7. Its better that it stays dry sump, just a lot of work to make it look clean.
