Great job Jason. Looks like a brand new eng/trans/subframe. Just the way I like. Did you have the harness modified for the SC Or order a new one designed for the SC?

SUBSCRIBING !

 

You're gonna love this, I have similar setup, LS3 heads, LS9 cam, and I make 500rwhp @ 5700 through a 4l80e. Awesome low down grunt. Beautiful build.

 

Long delay here as my wife has been sick. Now that she's on the road to recovery I was able to pick back up on this this weekend....

 

Now I just need to tackle the cooling system, heat exchanger, install the new booster/master, hook up the lines, wire it, install the new fuel system, figure out a rear end, run a new parking brake cable that we hacked off, exhaust, etc. etc.

 

sweet build

 

harness is from PSI conversions. It's designed to run a 411 pcm and was adapted for the supercharger.

 

Any reason you didnt use the OEM LSA tensioner assembly on the pass side? Planning a high mount AC compressor?

 

When I was collecting parts I decided to go with the LSXConcepts bracketry due to simplicity and price.

I'm actually not very happy with the blower drive....like at all. I may end up swapping to the GM parts if I can come up with a list of part numbers depending on price.

 

I havent seen any good results beyond the OEM tensioner. Anytime its low mounted, belt wrap is compromised and slip occurs

OEM stuff is relatively inexpensive through pace

Also, check out the holley main accessory bracket. Its cast and looks better than the flat plates

 

Nice build, it's looking good.

 

Watching your thread as I am doing an LS2 swap into a 68 Camaro. What motor mounts are you using? The head covers the heater outlets and I was wondering how you got your motor to sit that low in the cross member. Nice job on the swap. Thanks for any input. Is that a TH350 trans cross member you're using?

 

Any updates? How much Hp you put down?

 

it's all hooker/holley.

None unfortunately. My wifes been quite sick so garage time is almost nil at the moment. Motor is in and harness is ran and that's about it. I'm hoping to have it ready for the summer but will depend on my wifes health.

 

Can I ask what you dont like about the blower drive? I have the same setup and it all looks like it will work ok? I have not run it yet, I am at about the same spot you are with a square body C10 swap. The belt wrap looks a little shaky, but I have seen worse.

 

mostly that you cant use anything except factory sized pulley. There's basically no adjustability in it.

 

Now that my wife's gotten a clean bill of health I'm back to working on this.

Mostly wiring and plumbing left. And there's a lot of freaking wires.

 

Glad to hear your wife is OK.

Check here this is the instructions for my LSA kit it's modified by GM to help it fit in my 69 Camaro.

It has part numbers you need and pictures.

 

Thanks. Think I'm just gonna run what I have and deal with that after it runs and I want to pulley down some. I just need to get the damn thing running at this point.

What hx are you using? How did you plumb it? Are you using an ice box or just the factory filler tube? Did you just wire the pump to switched 12v?

 

I'm in the same boat!

 

Ah so yours doesn't run yet either? Do you have a build thread.
