The lower is right at 8 inches with the upper at 2.5 should give me about 20-25% overdrive. We will see I guess. The motor is 11.2:1 compression so it should not take much boost for it to make good power on e85. The exhaust is making progress at JMS.

Well I guess I will bring this back to the top because its alive and kicking.

In 2016 I traded this car for a twin turbo C6Z because I was involved in a lawsuit with a home builder which I knew would consume all my project funds. It was a fun car but after the lawsuit was done I regretted giving up on this car. The car changed hands once again during that period of time but I knew who the new owner was. He has it painted but other than that it remained exactly as I left it. I reached out to him last November and ask if he would sell me the car back. Hes a great guy and understand my attachment to the car so we struck a deal and it came home.

I will work on updating this thread as all my old pictures are dead but here is a picture from about 2 months ago right after I redid the firewall and installed the LSA long block.

It would probably be done if I would stop changing things... haha. This is the second set of wheels and brakes on the car before it was even finished.

Do you by chance have a part number for the upper radiator hose?
