Default LS1 SebringMX

Heres the view very few people will get of this car. Most will see the opposite end.

Classic Roadsters Sebring MX kit. Based on a 1963 Austin Healey 3000. 2 seat convertable that weighs about 2200 to 2400 lbs. I've been working on the car for about 1 1/2 years. Might get finished this year with some luck (and money).

LS1 T56 Mac headers, Dynomax mufflers, B1 cam, LS6 manifold, Permanant short belt mod (No A/C or P/S at this point), ASA valve job, lighty milled (.008)heads, Ford 8.8 3.73 traction lock rearend, Steeda Lower rear control arms, Steeda adjustable upper's, Speed Inc. fuel pump & Regulator (Next weeks purchase). Wilwood heavy duty 4 piston front disk's, Cobra disks on the rear. Master clutch cylinder from a 98' LS1. Lots of blood and sweat.

I was going to go with a hotcam, but decided on the B1 after reading so much about that cam. Looks like a good mix of performance and streetability. That along with the fact that it is so light should prove intresting.

Sounds like it should really haul! I love my B1 cam and I'm sure yours will too. When do you expect to have it running?

My goal for the first start is July 4 (engine test). The car will be on the street next year. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
