Uncreating the Create

Got my LS stuff yesterday! Going to have to build headers for it! Nothing is easy when you go off the beaten path!

Crate, crate, not create!

Man I get wood every time I think about when I uncrated mine. Just sat and looked at it for a spell.

If I were a rich man I would buy one for my living room. Would probably need to be single too.

“Uncreating” must have been the excitement! It is a big thrill unpacking one, makes you feel like a kid on Christmas again. And this one had 4 boxes! I still regret selling my 572/620 a couple of years back!

Yes, a Classic Roadsters 427 kit car. With the LS3, T-56 and Ford 8.8 it should weigh in around 2300#! I have had it about 10 years, it had a 388 SBC and 700R-4.

Nice! Asking the obvious question...525hp version? Where did you purchase it from?

Congrats on the motor! Crate motors are just pure sexy. My LSA was in a crate for months before opening. If I was a rich man, I'd just have put a glass top on it and have it as a new end table.
