Default Any 2nd gen lsx guys here?

Picked this car up a few months back and am just now getting started on it. It had a pontiac 400 bb that I ditched along with the muncie. I bought my lq4 6.0 with 4l80e this weekend, going to carb it to keep it simple and hopefully have some power to play with lol anywho heres some pics when I first got it. How about that baldwin motion paint job? Might go back with the motion paint scheme but its going to be with the solid stripe but its going to be coming out of the scoop on the hood.

72 with ls1 and t56 here. It's a much easier swap now. When I did it back in 06 there wasn't a whole lot in the aftermarket.
