John,

Try ATS American Touring Specialties, they are marketing the balancer with a conversion kit for the LS7 to go into a first Gen Camaro.Maybe they have the balancer you need.Yes,I believe it is ATI that makes the Fluid dampener.

ATS 702-245-6305 or www.t56kit.com

P.S.Let me know where you got your accesory drive parts and $ if you can.I might be interested in your balancer if ATS can help you out.

Your build looks good John. Good looking set of headers. What tube size are they and how much? Also can you get different size exhaust pipe sizes with them? In other words the bolt on street hookup collector.

HEADERS are from s&p 1 1/2" tubes , 2 1/2 " collector size ,560$ they are shorty headers with their own bolt on collector flanges with o2 bungs . i dont think they would be compatible with any other system. JOHN

Here is my homemade trans. cross member made from 1/2" x 2" steel w/reinforcement pieces welded in. Made some perches out of angle iron also w/reinforcement pieces that I will bolt in:

John thanks for all your help. I see you are using a 4l80 trani I was wondering what gear you were going to run. I am still thinking about that one. I only have a 10 bolt but that will have to go. I Found a 12 bolt for 350 dollers. I just got to get the money.

When the collector gaskets blow out go ahead and choke up the $20 each for copper collector gaskets from S&P. I also used longer collector bolts and used two nuts per bolt. The collector bolts had a habit of loosening which of course blew out the collector gasket.

(My application is S&P shorty headers on an LT1, but the collector is the same.)

john 67

thanks for the info, i didnt know this was a problem . I'll keep my eye on it when i eventually get it running, JOHN

john 67

you know i did notice that a while ago, the rotors came pre assembled onto the spindles.i would assume that the curved interior of the rotor is supposed to " scoop " tha air into the rotor as the wheel would be moving foward ? the slots on the outer parts are in the opposite direction. i"ll call wilwood tomorrow . thanks for the keen eyes.JOHN
