The Most Detailed LS3 In The Universe!

[Al Moreno]

Edit: This has become more of a built thread then originally intended.

So I figured we add pictures of the car also.




Hey guys, though I'd post a few pics of my sons project. It's a Gen 5 Camaro SS hes been working on.

On the performance side:

It's been bored and stroked to a 418, 11.4.1 compression, heads massage by Lingefelter, GT11 Lingenfelter cam, CP pistons, Lunati crank and rods, Meizire Electric water pump, Innovators West 8 rid front drive, Turn One power Steering pump, Every freakin bolt inside and out has been replaced with ARP, Pure power billet oil filter, Katech tensioner, Improved Raving valley baffle, ported intake and throttle body, etc, etc...

On the attention to detail:

The entire block, both inside and out along with the cylinder heads have been completely grounded smooth. All the accessories front drive brackets and the motor mounts were completed sanded and powder coated in "Anthracite". The oil pan, valley tray and timing chain cover powder coated in texture black. The thermostat housing powder coated onxy, intake in a gun metal gray. The block, heads, alternator, ac compressor, power steering pump all sanded down of any casting and painted BMW "Frozen" gray It's a gun metal gray with flat clear). All the pulleys were given a brush finish. Ring Brother washer for the intake bolts and throttle body, Lokar dip stick, etc, etc ......

There is a lot more but you get the idea.

Here's a couple of pics:





After relocating the factory EVAC solenoid and negative battery cable that mounted to the front of the cylinder head, the 4 factory bolt holes on the were no longer needed, so they were welded in and the face re-milled.



The factory vapor tube was replace with XRP AN lines and fittings.
