My dad and I finally started the 2000 LS1 in our conversion. For refreshers the list is as follows:

2000 LS1
4L60E
1985 C4 suspension
Paul Newman 1955 frame
A 1955 two door sedan body

I will try and get a video of it running up for you guys. It is pretty awesome, especially with no exhaust manifolds.

 

Congrat's!!!

 

no exhaust manifolds? won't that burn a valve.

I have heard that before, but my dad said what the heck, and we had it running for maybe 30 secs tops.

 

That is awesome. Sounds like it is coming together for you.

 

Yeah, you guys shoulda seen the smile on my dad's face when that engine started right up.
