LS1 C4 Vette build is getting very close to completion I worked through the coolant system connections last night...
AND the Power Steering connections...
AND the pulleys and brackets are all fitted and ready for use.
All I need to do now is:
1. Finish the exhaust connections (about 3-4 hours)
2. Port TB and LS6 intake.
3. Get heads and install them.
4. Bolt intake on.
5. Bolt air filter and bridge on.
6. Receive wire harness and install it.
7. Start up and tune car.
8. Start kicking *** everywhere I go.
beyond this list.... its turbo H2 time

Hey Cory get mad at AFR, I'm waiting for TSP to get my heads in. I didn't plan on it taking this long, so about the delay man.

Thanks for the comments.. .this has been quite a bit of work in a relatively short time.
I was showing pics to a guy at work and he asked me what I would charge to do something like this... I told him I'd do it for $5000 labor and he provides all parts. I don't think he's gonna take me up on the offer though....

Got the exhaust basically done today. It took about 6 hours and has about 1/2 hour to go with the hangers. It's back on the car and the car is sitting on the tires for the first time since November!
I still need to buy 2 hangers and some tips though. Exhaust clearance is AWESOME considering the fact I am WAY far away from stock exhaust
Heres a neat fact I learned today. If you put your hand on a red hot "mig ball" it can actually burn its way inside your hand. Not like a little burn on the surface. Not even a burn hole, exactly. This little "bb" burned into my hand and then stayed in there. The surface hole was smaller than the metal-I had to dig it out. That kind of sucked.
