The brake booster and MC came today.

9" booster to fit the LS series motor and a 1" MC to make sure there's enough line pressure for the 6P calipers!

Looks like you're having a good time. Frustrating at times for sure, but so worth it! Keep at it!

Just a quick update.

Did my first siphon today, 7ft of hose and an air compressor = no bad taste! Robert from MNGMP.com showed me how to do it right.

Quickly realized that I had more gas than my stupid misreading gauge told me. I almost ran out of places to stuff 93 octane! Apparently my law mower loves it! HAH!

The build just took a massive leap forward.

I took my LT T56 and converted it into an LS T56 with the help of Myron at TPIS and Rockland Gear.

The procedure wasn't all that hard honestly, it went better than I thought it would have.


Gotta clean it to look purdy!


Main shaft and front cover.


All done!
