Looks like you bought a lot of nice stuff - now get it into the truck already! :burn: |
Thanks! Just have to get radiator, wiring harness/ecu, and the trans then all the big stuff will be done. |
I just picked up a radiator from Jegs for my LS1/S10 swap and it's top notch. I got the Jegs brand universal fit 28x16.5 and it's a beast. Dual 1" rows and tig welded tanks with a billet filler neck. I was very impressed for $160. I trimmed the intrepid fans to fit it today and it was a piece of cake. |

How's that one fit into the cradle? Any pics of that? Any trimming? |
Is the outlet and inlet of that radiator both on the same side? Im going to go with the one that Current performance makes since it is a direct swap in with no cutting but you definately pay a hefty price for it. |
Well got the heads done.

What is the advantage of the LS3 intake valve over the LY6/L92 valve? |
Also the Ls3 valve weighs upper 80s grams and the L92 weighs around 110 grams. Lighter valvetrain = happy valvetrain. |
Heres some pics of the weekend. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3493.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3494.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3495.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3498.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3499.jpg TSP VVT-2 on left stock on right http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3501.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3503.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...p/100_3504.jpg Inside workings of the phaser.
