65 chevelle ls2 turbo project hey guys thought id throw up my 65 chevelle project motor swap..the motor it had was a built 355. it was great but i wanted better. so instead of rebuilding that motor to get more power i just said screw it and bought a ls2 motor.. i can only get pictures every weekend since the car is a nice drive from my house. and i get off work late. but here is my mod list right now let me know what you guys think..
2006 ls2 motor 19k miles
2003 4l80e transmission that i just had fully built for alot of power 0 miles
speartech harness for my setup
zo6 dbw pedal
gt40 garrett turbo
turbonetics 42mm wastegate
greddy bov
aeromotive a1000
60lb siemens inj
sanden a/c compressor
tr6 plus
all new belts
brp motor mounts
custom driveshaft
f-body modified oil pan just sitting in there for now.. it will be taken off and painted and smoothed
and im sure im forgetting alot of stuff but all i can remember. the speartech harness should be here wednesday so that can be done and then all the turbo piping and front mount intercooler. the motor is just sitting in there so we can see if there is any clearance issues. alot of stuff on the motor will be powder coated or chromed. and the ls2 fuel rail covers will be put on
before the motor swap.. this is what was in there
here is what showed up at my work today

sorry for the long wait but i have a few updates. my turbo piping came in to build my turbo manifolds, got the tranny in the car( the guy was crying when he started cutting through. he wanted me to get a different tranny that fit without cutting.. lol and the motor mounted where it should be. got my fuel system mapped out. ordered a new aluminum radiator with dual fans, front mount intercooler mounted in grill area, all the speartech wiring ran inside the car.
im debating on what to do with the fuel rail covers or intake manifold. i was going to paint one of them the same color red as the car but not sure if it will look bad or not. anyone know how to photoshop? i also will be powder
coating/chroming something under the hood to clean it up alittle.
