Default LS2Camaro ofi kit

Good luck getting that big S91 to fit, my builder had to mod some pipes and stuff to make my S85 to fit where it is suppose to, again you have a newer version of the kit. I am not trying to high jack this thread but just letting you know its close enough of a fit as it is and we all know not all cars are exactly the same. Of course my car is a 1995 w/Ls2 and builder finally got everything to fit, but the first two pics show of the engine/turbo clearance problems. The third pic shows more clearance. He had to end up cutting pipes, etc. For sure interested in how yours will turn out. PM me if you need more details of how to get it to eventually fit if yours does have a problem fitting, I hope it doesn't.

Very nice pics dan. It will fit so dont worry. I test fit everyone before it leaves.

Thanks Joel
Than why did mine not fit Joel without mods, and I have heard of others having the same problems? I am not bashing you at all, I mean do you pre-fit it on every car with all components installed, again not all cars are exactly the same. Do you actually test fit every kit in the car before it leaves the shop, or do you just test fit it on the engine outside of the car? I know you have shown pics and stuff of it fitting on a car, but that is when you were originally creating and mocking up the kit, but I highly doubt you test fit every kit on the engine and inside the engine compartment with all components, or else mine would of fit, and it was not even close.

I dont know why yours didnt fit and didnt know anything about it until now. Yours was one of the first 3 ever made also. I didnt have a car to test fit those on. I do have a test shell and everyone is installed before it leaves to make sure it fits. Yours was close to the belt as I can see in the pics before it was fixed. Who else have had proplems? I havent heard of any.

Dan Sorry about this...Looks like your going to have to start another build up install thread.
