Looks like fun...I've been looking at stroker setups for my vette already.

You stroke that vette and it'll be on a league of its own! Def hit up tompson for a shortblock, and see what parts you can reuse off your ride now. Or do ilike i did, sell all and buy new.

I was looking at his short/long blocks. Has a 416 and 427 ls3. Can reuse heads till get better ones. Can use the fast setup I'll be ordering at end month. Everything else should switch right on over.

Damn LAST! Your build is screaming along as fast as your ride will be when its complete. (Wish I could say the same for mine. )

Looks awesome, man! Can't wait to see the end result.

Thanks man!

Yeah some of my buddy's think im spending too much to fast, but I just want my ride back up and running. I thought I had it all figured out and was going to be an easy affordable build, but man I was wrong.
Hopefully it will all pay off, and deliver the kind of performance im expecting out of it. Im waiting on EPS to send me a spec'd out Pat G cam so I can start assembling the engine, pretty much have all the components, except the pushrods. Dont want to order those since I need to measure. The 4l80e is being built as we speak, but still need the cross member, dip stick, drive shaft cut, and most importantly, a Stall that will work with the n20 I'll be spraying.

Soon it'll be back on the road, really trying to have it ready by Oct 22nd... my Bday!

I'll update with pics soon... thanks again man!

OK, so I went with a 4l80e conversion, and now im stuck on not knowing what to do.

I bought a cross member but now I need a body mount torque arm. I really don't want to go this route, because once I swap my rear end in the future, I will have no use for it.

So!... Is there anything out there that will do both things as far as a crossmember, that will work with my stock torque arm and be compatible with my 4l80e conversion?


Thanks for any help!

Finally!
One of the major components is complete. Say hello to the new 4l80e!
Now a trip to Dallas to pick it up once it goes through the dyno.
