Nice man!...there's no better front end on a 240 in my ever so humble but outspoken opinion. Sorry for posting so many...I got carried away.

Mine...needs paint (badly)

ok so i put down the internet **** and broke away from PSU for a night and got this started. will finish over the weekend and have it all loomed up.

basically i got tired of the hideous and horribly mounted fuse box. realized i needed 10% of what was in it and removed it all and ran the relays and fuseable links i did need into the cabin. now they are accessable from the air bag tray inside the car :]

ive got a motivated assistant thats been kicking me in the *** about getting er done so things are moving really fast now. bearings are all im waiting on for the mowta to go back together. im going to use my other motor for a mock up setup to get mounts setup probly tomorow.

i also made the ls1 ecu fit into the cabin without extending the harness on either end :]

Wow... great thread.

FYI all LSX motors suck some oil through the PCV system... if you're not running a catch can the maniold will always have an oily film in it and a little around the intake ports when you remove it.
