Default 2000 ws6 370" billet s480 th400 9in e85 build

I just got this car I had been wanting another t/a since I got rid of my last one when my son was born. I ran across this one mostly done so I picked it up and plan on changing some things on it so the plans for this one is I'm pulling the engine out to clean up the engine bay and repaint it and clean up the harness, changing the boost controller from the aem that is on it to a boost leash with pulse, bigger injectors for e85 I'll have the 80s off of it for sale soon. Also might swap out the ls6 intake for a Holley high ram.

Got the engine pulled down since I bought the car on just the guys word that it was forged, it has weisco forged pistons and Callie's rods and a gm crank, I'm going to be pushing this crank to its limits so I'm gonna send the engine to Kyle at thompson motorsports and have him throw a crank in it and re balance everything. Also ordered some mwc Lower a arms, and a motion raceworks hardline steam ports and valley cover.

Thought I recognized that car and after looking at your location it confirms my assumption. Seems like the kid you bought it from has all kinds of problems with his builds. I know he bought this car pretty much done but never knew what happened to it or why he wanted to get rid of it so soon. Sounds like you have some big plans for it though!
