Another ls1 Fox
Just think how quick it would be with a set of AFR, TFS heads & a ported fast. Easy
60 -70rwhp more depending on compression. I had a 437rwhp. 331 stroker n/a 93 lx & I was running mid 10's with it because it only weighed 2,780lb. & the suspension geometry on fox stangs is killer. With 4:30 gears & slicks, your car will pull the front tires. Awesome build. Keep us posted!

Man I havent visited this thread in a long while lol. I havent had any issues with the belt slipping. My only issue is the starter gets heat soaked. I need to find a heat shield to install.
There wasnt anything special about the way the alt was mounted. Stock configuration worked perfect. The 6an line for my application is more than enough. You will need to figure out your goals and go with the correct size line for your car.

Well I rewired the starter and accessories this past weekend. I was having issues with that distribution block I had put in place. The starter was getting heat soaked and with the battery in the trunk the wire to the starter was long. I ran better wire to the starter and routed it to cut off around 6' of wire. I also wrapped the starter in heat shield. The car starts up right away everytime even after a 30 minute drive in 90 degree weather. I also ran the accessory wires directly to the battery and added in a 40 amp circuit breaker. Everything has worked fine and the engine bay is a little cleaner as well. Ill try and get some pics this weekend if it quits raining. Next I need to relocate a coil thats to close to the brake booster and rubbing the spark plug boot on it. I also need to swap in the ported TB Ive had sitting in the garage for the last year lol.

If this swap is still on the road I'd like to get some pictures of a few things on the swap if possible.
Can you show me how you did your PVC set up and how did those gauges work out for you? Would you choose something different if you could do it again?

Thanks for the build thread, just starting the same build with a 4L60. I heard about the shifter, and trans mount issues with this setup already. Looks great, you have encourage me to keep with it. Thanks for all the wiring tips. looking forward to the end results...
If you check out the diagram I posted up its on there. I think it was a yellow wire off the plug that goes in the back of the stock fox cluster. But all the wiring is laid out for you in this thread somewhere, pretty simple.
