Your car is looking good. Thanks for the part numbers for the PS lines. I am installing the Jeep box in my 66. If I can't get any of the lines I have to work I will order the ones you posted.

So it drives my wife nuts but I can't stay off CL...
Down on vacation in Phoenix and bought some LS7 (C6 Z06) parts. The car had dropped an intake valve and killed #1 piston but no damage to rod.
For $700 I bought the following...
Stock forged 4" crank
Full set of titanium rods and 7 pistons (not using pistons)
LS7 cam
LS7 lifters
Dry sump oil pan
Oil pumpValley cover
Front/Rear engine covers
Cam/Crank sensor (these suckers can add up)
So I will sell LS7 cam for like $100. And I was looking for the lifters for a 5.3 I'm building so that saved me $60 that I was going to spend on used ones.I will have to run a custom piston as the LS7 titanium rods are 6.067" whereas stock is 6.098" and most of the shelf 4" stroker setups use 6.125". These rods also have a smaller wrist pin (.925 vs. .927). And I have a 3.99" bore where the LS7 has a 4.125". I'll go 4.005" which will make a 403". Should be kinda rev happy for a stroker with the lighter combo of crank and titanium rods!

Nice build. I just started a 1970 lemans sport. I'm doing a turbo lq4,ls3 upper w/t56. I also live on cl and my girl complains about it all the time. 90% of my build was found on cl including the car.
