Odometer went past 700 miles today. Great day for a drive, but I've developed a small exhaust leak at the driver side header. Looking forward to jumping into this actually...haven't had the time to touch the car in a couple of weeks, and miss working on it. #shouldhavewentwiththegmgaskets
More later!

Thanks guys. It's been a very busy summer at work. I have managed to get the odometer to go over 1k, so I have enjoyed the car some. I have yet to purchase a nice camera setup, and frankly I dont know where to start. Not enough time lately to research them much.
We just wrapped up another championship baseball season, so that will free up some time. The exhaust leak is gone, and I am down to chasing the final bug in this setup. My CEL has been on since day one. I have talked to Mast about the code it throws up, and it's my fuel pump circuit. Specifically a ground short in the circuit. I'll figure it out this winter...

Scott, I use a CANON POWERSHOT A610. These older cameras are cheap and take awesome photos.

My SAMSUNG S6 takes even better shots than the CANON.

SUP guys! Been a while since I’ve posted here. Car is great, but didn’t have a ton of time to enjoy it this year due to work. I’ve had an engine project going since January, and it’s finally in the car. Not started yet, but we’re close. Nothing wrong with the engine in the car at all, I simply turned stupid and decided that the car deserved an LS7. So I began putting together a plan. I’m not one to ever settle with what’s available, and I wanted to put something together a little bigger, and a little more powerful than what comes in a crate. I thought that 434 cubic inches would work well as a package, so I bought a block and sent it out to Steve at Race Engine Development (RED) in Oceanside Ca. to be sleeved. I also made a phone call to Tony Mamo to see what he could do to a set of GM LS7 heads that I had, to make them work better, and that’s where the project took a slight turn. Tony’s LS7 Head program uses TrickFlow 260 cc castings, and make big power. Tony sold me lots of goodies besides his LS7 265 cylinder heads, such as his ported MSD Atomic manifold, a Nick Williams 102 throttle body, state of the art solid roller lifters, solid camshaft, shaft rockers, ported oil pump, push rods, custom head gaskets, and more. There are a lot of details in this new engine that you have to check out, and I’ve put together a build thread over on LS1Tech. I’ll update this with pics after install is complete. Anyway, here’s a link if your interested...
