That engine is going scream for a T56, also don't use a chromed out swap meet booster and master cylinder, it really detracts from the jewel. Details are nice other wise.

pedigree doesnt mean a thing without the correct engine and trans. Instead of the LS454 it would be cool if you can build up a new LT1.
