Default project pinks

a few of us locals are going to try and get on the pinks show, not sure if they will let us on or not but we are building a car and going to try. check it out so far. we had most of the parts for this laying around. some were donated from businesses like specter, hp motorsports, diyautotune. so far we are into the car for about $1900 in cash. i think we will end up around $3k in actual cash. people are really coming together to donate stuff they had laying around and that is keeping the costs way down.

we are going to get it running before we even apply to get on the show. we know a few people that might be able to help us get it on the show. if anyone has the hook up with any of those guys maybe you could put in a word for us.

here is a vid of us TRYING to blow up the stock motor.

and a pile of pic's of our progress over the last month.

Thats badass, hope you all get on pinks. I wish I could get a group together like you all did and build another LSX to run you guys on Pinks, something like Ls1tech faceoff. Where the winner wins the cars and donates them to an auction for charity of the winners choice.

thats not a bad idea. get it done!!

remember we are on a very low budget. this is a stock 5.3 with a master power turbo. 90% of the parts going into this car people had laying around or are being donated for free. i think having a "rival" would increase our chances of geting on the show.

another good day out in the garage. we prety much finished up the header and cross over. did the oil lines to the turbo, did a little wiring and was able to crank the motor over, fixed the passenger door, worked on mounting the tach and wideband, started cleaning up the roll bar parts.

anyone have a bowtie emblem laying around. we would like to stick one to the grill

I have a plastic gold one from my truck (2003 Silverado) that I would be willing to donate.
