you lost boy? looking for the lt1 section???

 

it would suck worse if it was my car but things happen thats what insurance is for. i just had to send all the invoices for the car to the insurance company. have to go friday to pick up customers new project 69 camaro and all the parts he ordered for it

 

its another extreme deadline feb 15 9 am running driving on to hauler to florida

 

UPDATE on parts got the headers back tonight! should have the rest of the turbo system back my the weekend!!!

the rest is of the turbo system will be black..
these are ceramic coated..











that should be enough to make your mouth water i no mine is!

 

beautiful headers! I'm hoping mine turn out that nice!

 

the turbo!

 

WOW those parts are pretty... I'm so jealous of your progress!!!!

How come the the 2 O2 bungs on driver side primaries but seemingly none anywhere else? Just put them there for simplicity-sake? I would've thought maybe 1 in each collector or worst-case both in the DP.

 

those just some bolts for a heat shield for the brake booster

 

What can i say i like stainless!! just about every bolt is now stainless Allen except for the few i specialty ones and the graded stuff..



all the coil pack stuff too! god this thing is sexy

 

Wish I had my 73 again......... Might be in it's 14th incarnation by now.

Remember the old saying "If it don't go, chrome it"? I don't see any chrome.

 

well thats it i got the rest of the turbo stuff back! i just need to pull the motor back out and put the pan and the trans one it. then its time for the massive wiring project..









a couple guys asked why there was bungs on the header on the drivers side. if you look under the master there is a fancy heat shield there!

 

Damn.... that's all I got to say. I want to see how the radiator will fit (and intercooler?)... Looks fantastic man!!

 

Its a sweet *** ride, but one year from being perfect

 

Also, what size wastgate & bov are you running?

 

gate is 44mm and the bov is 50mm

 

this is what i got so far.. i took all the pins out of the pcm plugs and labeled all the pins. i now plugged all the plugs into there sensors and started zip tying all the clumps together so that i can group all the wires the way i want..






the welding table has turned into the wiring station!



carnage!

 

well i got these plugs from harry's scrap yard a few weeks ago.. i payed so much for them i have too use them!!!







i originally wanted to put the pcm in the car under the drivers seat... but the dang thing doesn't fit under there plus if i ever change the seats it could pose a problem.. so i thought well ill put it in the glove box like everyone else does.. then after some thought and a bunch of wasted time i decided in the cowl would work nicely.. so i wracked a hole in it made this fancy bracket to mount the pcm to and made a bolt in filler piece..













its not my best work but it will do..

 

some new...

I got most of the engine harness done. it looks like a mess but it has came out really nice.. there is two main plugs for the engine so that it can be removed with the harness still attached to the engine. when you look at the motor you dont see many wires even with them not loomed. with the throttle body sideways it hides a lot of the plugs.



also i tore the dash out and took the main harness out and removed the factory fuse box out, i should have the new harness in the next day or two then i can start on that.. what a friggen job this is...






ill tell you what they use some thick wires in 1973 most are 10 gauge at least. the main starter wire on this ls motor is only like 8 gauge..

 

man your going to fry alternators, you have somewhere else to put it? Will it work down by the stock f-body location?
