Great to see progress on this project.
One thing to consider is the air intake system. LS engines are very sensitive to high air intake temperatures. When AITs go up above 130-140 the computer will start pulling timing very quickly and you can easily loose 15-20 HP. You current system is sucking hot air right behind the radiator.
I would consider making a air intake system that has one tube that goes to the passenger side and down, and pick up cool air from in front of the front tire, outside the engine compartment.

Just found this thread. Love to see LS enthusiasts across the pond! Great build guys. Love everything about it. Could you guys do widebody in the rear and get some 11" wheels? Seems like a lot of work though. Cheers!

More updates :) We have now run a few hours on the court this summer
I'm super happy with how the car is running, a good balance and grip. But after we mounted supercharger and have 650nm@3500rpm on the wheels, the car spins over all the track
The next step is 1bar pressure, E85 konventering and a new tune on the engine.

Just found this and Ho-lee-crap is this awesome. Im planning my own setup like this. Im not planning to stuff the engine as far back as you did so I can retain the interior. Not sure what im doing about the rear. E39 rear driveline? Im wanting to leave the car looking factory untill you open the hood for the shock value on the street.
