Royal T. Insane build! Quick question, and I skimmed through all the pages so I might have missed it but, are you SD tuning? Reason I ask why, I do not see a maf only a IAT sensor (I believe thats what I see). Currently doing the swap on my car and am trying to figure out the intake setup. Thanks
Thanks for the kind words.. Sent you a message

Thanks for the kind words.. Means a lot..
Little update.. Got tires in so I can finally mount these wheels and get the car lowered to were I want it to be.. Also got something in the works for the rear overfenders.. Some Carbon Fiber action/copies.. lol
I'm doing the same swap as you with an LS3 and I'm having trouble with the wiring is there any way you can walk me through it if so my number is 505-489-3866 my name is Thomas or could you give me your number so I can contact you?

Oh man just now saw this.. Well I am not the best at wiring that is why I had my good friend do that part since that is his bread and butter..
So no real updates from me really, car is just awaiting some parts to arrive so I can wrap up my brake lines.. At the moment all the front stuff is complete need to run the rear stuff now. After that is complete I can finally take it to the alignment.
Okay guys finally some update. I finally was able to finish my brake lines, with family life, work it was hard to get to the car. I just ordered parts every week until I had everything to smash it out in pretty much one day.
Before we get started I decided to showcase this Cognac instead of beer. (since I have not had a decent beer in month). Anyways, my mother In-law picked up this Hennessy Pure-White when she went on a cruise. They don't sale these state side so it was a treat. This is probably the smoothest Hennessy I have ever tried..
Okay, so I got a little OCD with the brake lines. I made bulk head fittings for the firewall and the rear wheel wells. This way if I need to do anything it well be quick and easy and over all its just a cleaner look.
Going to be running -3an lines and fittings..
Okay lets getting started, have to have my guilty pleasure
Started my installing the new -3an fittings on the BMC
added a little 90 degree bend right here so it would not hit my filter on my heads.
Added to bulkhead fittings here. One goes to the rear and the other goes to the passenger side.
This is the view behind the firewall to run to the passenger side.
And out the other side, did not want a lot of clutter in the bay..
Ran two Banjo fittings for the fronts..
Fronts are done..
To do the rears I had to make a tube straighter for the hard lines that go to the rear. Did not want to buy a $200 tool so made my own.. Came out good..
Started from the firewall and heading to the rear.
And yep found me some black hardline.. Just had to do it..
Coming up on the tee.. yeah I need to clean the car.. once everything is done interior will be cleaned
Here you will see both the tees for my MBC and my Hydro E-Brake
Had both sides running the the bulkheads in the wheel well..
Close up
And the other side of the wheel well
And rears done..
Now just have to bleed them and get ready to head to a alignment shop.. But before I go I will swap out my Clutch Master Cylinder for the Wilwood 7/8" master cylinder that Sikky sales. Reason for this is the OEM Cylinder can't handle the T56 clutch..
First off no update yet really... I ditched the overfenders I have for the front and rear and have some new ones being made fresh out of mold. Reason for this decision was due to available for replacement parts. Old overs were from NZ and would be hard to get spares so hooked up with a guy in the states.. So should have those soon.
Agreed, i didn't care for the other over fenders at all. Everything else on this project is so nice and the attention to detail is awesome. Can't wait to see this car in action

Thanks guys.. and yes I agree with you, the other ones were not up to par with the build..
Here is a little tease of the fronts... Still have to get a alignment and get my fronts sitting at -4.5 camber.. Then I will add a spacer to finish her off... This just give you a idea.. Current front specs are 18x9.5 -22
If you look at my signature it clearly states how I feel about spacers.. Well since I built these wheels to go with my other fenders I will definitely have to get some spacers for these fenders, which I hate. I will eventually rebuild them so I wont have to run spacers but I guess I better remove my sig for now... lol
Not needed. Can even cause problems (i.e. death) if pieces break off and get in the lines. Fortunately the way those particular adapters seal you won't hurt anything with the tape. It isn't accomplishing anything either.
Have I mentioned how awesome this car is? Really love the work but that one picture jumped out at me.

Thanks for the heads up.. I only used the teflon tape at the MBC, for the AN adapters.. No teflon was used for the -3AN fittings.. Again thanks for the heads up and the kind words about my build..
