Default My Chevelle Is Getting A Makeover!!

Hey guys! Well the time has come for me to take my 72 Chevelle to the shop. My shop guy told me he can get me into the shop in two weeks. So this is a little mini-build update on the install of my 408 stroker LS 6.0 & T56 Magnum. Here are a few shots of my parts so far. I still have to buy a few odds and ends, such as my clutch, rocker arms, etc. The heads are in the machine shop being ported, polished and assembled with Ferrea stainless steel valves and Comp Cams dual springs and titanium retainers. The pic of the motor is it still in the crate. Don't want to open it until assembly time to keep the crap out of it. Some of the parts in the pics include a Speartech harness, SLP double roller timing chain, a Quicktime bellhousing, Comp Cams hydraulic roller lifters, ARP fasteners and a GM conversion oil pan to clear the Chevelle cross member. Look and enjoy.

Will do. It's gonna be a few months process because I'm gonna shave the firewall while the motor is out and I have to modify the tranny tunnel. I'll update pics as I go.

nice set up you will have their. One thing is that a lh8 (h3) pan if so it will hang low past the cross member.

Please keep us updated.

Not sure who said it, but it's a favorite quote.
