got an awesome deal on a all the front accessories, supposedly has 60k on them. paid $150. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...c8b9582015.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...86f793951b.jpg |
Holy shit that is amazing for complete f bod accessories. I had a guy give me $600 for everything before |
Needless to say I couldn't pass it up. ThinkI will be getting a complete ls6 manifold minus injectors (although I have some already) for cheap too. |
no real progress, been pretty sick. put my coil packs back together, pulled the front accessories out of the wash and primered them up. dog wouldnt leave me alone so i turned him into my new 2015 superbarker. had to put a blower blanket on for safety. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...4a66734967.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...a9498cee88.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...08874e68c6.jpg |
got ripped off by a member for a oil pan setup. guy said it was in great condition. think the motor exploded cause the windage tray is all blown out, the pickup tube was bent to shit and there was tons of metal shavings in the pan. besides that ordered up some stuff. headgaskets, head bolts, starter. still tryin to find lifters so i can put the heads on. still tryin to decide what color to paint the motor. think like a metallic orange for some reason. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...4131dca5f2.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...bee1581b71.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...f55a03e305.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d5245118fb.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...3c609e0e15.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...73f3ce623c.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...43d61339b3.jpg |
found a color for the motor. "aged copper". got a couple parts today. headgaskets, head bolts, and steam tube gaskets. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d00269e4d3.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...55d614803b.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...f0b8f1cea0.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...6c54153a68.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...f9d3dd65c3.jpg |
Depending on if you want to do hood pins or not, you can buy a C6 Corvette air bridge and do an over the radiator intake instead of using the F-body air lid. It also requires cutting two layers of the underside of the hood. This is what mine looks like: http://i183.photobucket.com/albums/x...ps7ft3fmyf.jpg |
oh i know. i havent decided what im doin for intake yet. i got the lid free and thoguht it was funny it pretty much fit perfectly in the front there. |
What's the part number for those Dorman coolant seals? Andrew |
heres the info from rockauto DORMAN Part # 56390 {#12551933} Coolant Bypass Seals |
so decided i cant afford this thing anymore. im very impatient and dont have the time or money to finish it. its up for sale on the local craigslist. i put the heads on, put the oil pan on and mounted it back in the car. then i put the front body panels on. if i dont get any bites as a complete car then im goin to part everything out. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...cfceb4b4b5.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...c6041f80b6.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...146e47dd80.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...10534357f6.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...3a7e7fdee0.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...2a213d8cda.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...eb4c39e87d.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...5ac684440e.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...dd987a7b43.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...bd21fd8a64.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...2f3616df28.jpg |
How much are you selling it for? |
i have it up for $1500 obo caus ei know how people like to lowball but i think some guy is picking up the shell today and then ill probably be parting out the motor stuff later. |
These are extremely easy to put LS engines in them. I don't like that engine mount kit they sell because the engine sits way too high and too far forward in the car. I modified the k-member, relocating the rack and then used a motor plate and mid plate. I also used f-body headers. Turned out pretty sweet. |
