Brent- Their were a few things that Ron & I wanted to improve before final set-up.. We are changing the sub-frame bushings to get the car lower about 1/2.. Wanted to run the tranny angle @ 2.5 degrees.. easier to do with sub out.. Had a small issue with motor mounts.. Wanted to mock up headers.. All these things justified me pulling the sub out.. Plus we work alot faster.. Tranny tunnel is being modified for new angle on tranny..

Ain't that right there the truth! Been there - done that. Keep your eye on the prize Ron - it's all good. I'm just glad someone else decided to do it ass-backwards. I mean re-engineering the car before paint - where's the challenge in that?! At least Chris was able to lend you some PJ's for your car - I'm looking for the touch-up paint and I've never seen second gear yet lol!

Happy Turkey Day and see you Friday at Del Mar bud!

Gregg

Marty- We tore it apart & sold it for parts! Got a LS7 for sale!

We got the motor set up on the sub-frame with transmission & fabricated with tack welding the modified transmission tunnel.. The headers & pedal assembly are next.. Going with Wilwood pedals & shorty M/C..
