No love for me? The harness should be back a week from today and I can get the new engine lifted into the car. New wheels ready to go on. But while I'm at it, I ought to find a torque arm bracket for my 8.8

Hood is ordered and will be here around Christmas time. Slight delay on the harness so it has to wait... Monday the new shop will start going up. Nothing fancy just a 50x100

You know... My shop is huge compared to what some have to work with (and I'm grateful) but a 50 x 100 building will house my shop! Just sayin'...

Im not jealous at all...


The car looks pretty decent.

yeah I work in a 50x80 red iron that I thought was big.

But to save on cost this one is just a pole barn style that will take awhile to get concrete.

Alright little update:
The had to reschedule the shop, but they are setting the trusses today on it. Also my smoothie q hood showed up yesterday, my trans am bumper will be here next week, and my wiring harness with any luck will be here today so I can hopefully put the motor in the car

Man......never saw this (part 2) thread. I was wondering what happened to your LT1 to LSx swap. Looks like it's been awhile since you updated, but I see you started with a fresher roller. Hope you find time to update this.
