So its been awhile since any updates and a lot has got done. My transmission showed up from American Powertrain and was able to get bolted up with engine. I also ordered the LS swap headers from Kooks and was hope full they worked with the DSE frame. I really wanted an 17/8" primary tube but couldn't bring myself to the $2200 DSE ones. I was really happy to find out they fit perfect!







She's a Roller!!


Next up is building the exhaust and fitting rest of sheet metal for final gapping and then off to paint! Just wanted to throw a shot out to Billy at B&B Classics for all the great customer service and help with all my questions.

So I decided to remove the ball flange and install 3" V band clamps. Also ordered a cross over pipe and cross member from B&B very nice pieces.




Here is a shot of the pass side showing header clearance


Very excited my third member showed up so now I can order my drive shaft and start exhaust. I went with 3.90 and the Wavetrac posi unit. Talking to a few guys running autocross the 3.73 was a bit tall in 2nd gear so hopefully this will be overall a good ratio.

I'm not sure on the DSE part number but I believe they are the 1" set back ones.
