Hey guys, been slowly working on a head swap on the LS1 over the winter on my car. Thought I would show an update with pictures and a vid. I installed ETP 215 heads, 1-3/4" Stainless Works LT's, ported the TB, 36# injectors, ATS's new T56 cross member, and am now getting a new full polished stainless steel exhaust built. (2.5" w/ X-pipe) ...shooting for 450 rwhp N/A after a tune.

Here's a vid from this morning. The car is idling with open headers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxEgUMZqJbE

Here are some pics of the head swap: http://s34.photobucket.com/albums/d1...20head%20swap/

Sweet! I wish YouTube didn't have such crappy compression, it certainly doesn't do your car any justice!

Dig the car. Don't see many that color. My chopper is candy apple red.

What cam did you go with? I agree with scott, the vid did not do your car justice...still a very, very nice ride.

Cam is a TSP 233/239 112

I find Youtube an easy way to upload a vid. If you guys have any other suggestions, let me know.

Thanks for the compliments

in your signature I would have seen that. 233/239 thats a lot of duration my man. Have you driven it hard yet? How does it run?

I did, with my old setup though (stock heads and S&P shorty headers) the car didn't feel as strong as I hoped on the top end. I was told the shorty headers flow about the same as stock manifolds, so maybe that was choking me a bit. Hopefully the new list of mods will cure that for a while.
