Looking good, Ron!

Jewelry test fit. Like a glove, thanks Aaron!

You can see some of the over the top bars above the trans., somebody needs to take this bender away.

Wheeewww! Now, just check the ring gear clearance when you can, just to be sure. We should be good to go then.

Looks like a jungle gym in there

Ron,

I have a bunch of 1 5/8" .065 chrome moly scraps floating around in the shop, I'll ship them up and you can weld them into that web if there is any room left lol. Hood looks great, hoping to mount one to my car someday

Hey Jeff, I think there is a little spot around the passenger side feet area that doesn't have any tubing. Send it!

Makes me wonder what his childhood erector set projects looked like.

Not too shabby for an outlaw street drag racer.

Don't know if I'm stupid, or just can't pass up a good deal. A buddy called with a line on some LS3's that were built by Katech for the American LeMans Prototype Challenge series.http://www.katechengines.com/motor-s...s-series-lmpc/

They are basically blueprinted 6.2 LS3's, with forged Mahle pistons, and ARP hardware. They had really cool dry sumps on them, but they kept them, along with the cams, and front timing covers. They have about 3K miles on them, and look like new inside. I bought 2 of them, I paid $2500 .

They probably won't give me enough HP's but, I figure I can work the bugs out of the car with one of them until I get board, and need to step it up.

What a great deal! I would have probably bought them too for projects to be named later.
