I know it's been said before, but I'll say it again. While the style that this build is working toward may not match up with my own, the workmanship and skill that have gone into it are simply outstanding. You, sir, have some serious talent.

Great looking accessory drive. Are all the pulleys from street and performance? Can I ask how much they cost you?

Why is everyone on this site so in love with the tube k member swap?

About $1000 for tube k member + A arms for a weight reduction of 30-40 lb, what a waste.

If this was a turbo build I could understand but this is not the case.

I'm not in love with them. I think for the road cars, and I bet most of your ls1tech people only ever use their car on the street, tubular k-member are a waste of time.

The work slammed1500 is doing is beyond amazing, and I wish there were a boat load more thread of this caliber by more members. This is what I come to this forum to see.
