Default Another LS1 Cobra Daytona Kit

All,
I got my motor running now and I am putting it aside. I am now working on my friend's LS1 Cobra Daytona Coupe kit on a Z chasis. I am planning getting this thing running within the next month or two. The hard part is all done. Here is some progress: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2079260/8
Who said conversion is cheap? the drivetrain alone is 5K. Mounts and headers = 1k. My labor will cause him at least 2K. Not including all the little thing like radiator, gauges ..etc.. Anyway I told him plan on put in around 20K for this car to be complete.
You can see this car already got the body kit on it. We are planning to complete everything on this car by next spring. I know we are pushing it but it can be done.

Here is a pix of the engine.

Looks like a great project Vinh, but don't you want to finish yours? That would drive me crazy!
