I had to purchase 4 sets to cover the tooling so if someone needs/wants a engine set IM me.

Mark what did C&R say is the expected efficiency gain with the 40mm larger bricks? Obviously the dyno results tell a story, but without knowing the base results on standard bricks such results don't give us mortals the relative cost/gain equation.

(Ignore as Mark already answered that he will be testing std and bigger bricks - colin )

I'll look at a LSA system to see if a better intercooler could be made.

Mark

A lot of the Cadillac guys are switching to the ZL1 lid which is supposed to have a slightly larger brick?

Yes it has more air volume. When I ordered my LSA I got a ZL1 lid to put on it. We have to be excited that Mark is doing these upgrades as they are trickling down so we get to have them too.

Is there a part number available for the axle ends? Very interested in using a set for my '66 C10 build.

Always looking for ideas in your threads! A little off topic, but was there a 2016 Shelby GT350 at your house this weekend?

Starting on ABS brake lines.

Mark,

I feel like I am watching the "Mule Build" in PHR all over again.

Your builds are truly inspirational and the fact that you share your knowledge and make parts available after you design them with the "Team/Small Army" of people you work with. Once again this build has lit the fire in me to get back on my car and start toying with it.

Thank you again for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Marty - Could not have said it better myself. Even though I don't have a Camaro or car for that matter, his process and ideas have inspired me too to work on my truck and maybe incorporate some of his ideas.

Mark, you are doing a wonderful job with the posts on this update and explaining why you make decisions is great!

Mark,

As the others have mentioned thanks so much for sharing the build pictures and your experience/knowledge with the rest of us!

Is it critical for the intercooler to be out in the front of the grille opening as opposed to the A/C Condenser?

I just got my C/R Racing Rad and once test fit I'm going to get them to build me a custom Intercooler to replace the Roush Racing factory Intercooler along with some overflow/surge tanks to go with it. I really like the setup you have come up with and was thinking of doing the same exact intercooler/Vintage air condenser - is that a 14x24 condenser or a 14x22?

Thanks again for all your help
