Default Newbie build! 93 Rx-7 LS T-56 track day build

Here we go! Just picked up this roller.





Plan is to gut it as much as possible. We have a 5.3 out of a wrecked 07 Silverado and a T-56 out of a 02 Camaro. My background is in circle track. I have a 7.25 quarter master clutch that I want to use but don't know what slave I will have to use with the LS. Any help would be appreciated.

Quarter Master makes an adapter that bolts to a T56 and allows you to use their Tri-Lite bearing, which will work with their 7.25" clutch.

Finally making some progress. The cam swap is done and the engine and trans are joined. Harness mods are done and it runs.

Next step is to stab it and mount the fuel cell.
