Sup guys been thinking about going v8 awhile back but thought i would go the cheaper route and go with a built KA24de with a simple t25 turbo for my drift setup. After many headaches and little issues here and there I decided to go V8.

What the car looked like when I first got it on 10/29/11





9/19/13 Here is what the car currently looks like




and us picking up a LS1 from a 04 GTO


and the stuff i got from fueled racing.

Full mount kit:

Fuel line kit:

Clutch line kit:

I know i could save a whole lot of money shopping and piece my own stuff together but im in a time crunch.

Also picked up Fueled racing intake, a new oil pan gasket, new clutch and flywheel, trans fluid, oil and oil filter, f body shifter since i have a GTO trans and plan on ordering the shift lever arm tomorrow.

Besides getting exhaust made and ecu reflashed, anything else big I'm missing?

The goal is to have it ready for a drift event on 9/29

being that im under a time crunch, wiring harness will be a custom built one that wires into a switch panel with push start button. Dont have time to remove old harness send them to place to make a nice pretty plug and play one.

Greer statium in Nashville, tn. The swap kit is awesome. The shop had the engine and trans in within an hour.

Working on exhaust and wiring today.

The engine was pretty dirty so we decided to clean it up a bit. We didn't charge Johnny for this, just something extra to make the swap look better.

Just a brush and the air gun cleaned it up nicely.

Johnny provided all new gaskets for the intake manifold, valve covers, and exhaust manifolds.

Dan cut the top ears off of the transmission case to help with clearance in the trans tunnel.
