getting close!!!!!! finnaly got my parts yesterday, so i am getting close. hoping to get my hands on my buddys degree wheel tonight so i can degree the cam in.
but last night i got the rod bolts all swapped, cam installed, timming chain all fit up, ground the oil pump to clear the chain, cleaned everything, got head studs installed (glad i had those laying around from an old motor, my l19 from the lsx dont work on the ls1)
pretty much all set. should have the motor in the car this weekend without heads or intake.
waiting on a flywheel to, but if the weather is right i will still bolt the tranny up and messure for a drive shaft.
anyone know a good local that can build me one cheep?
i will post a couple pics later.

but i can do a couple little things, and the way my new timming chain works, i can accually probably button up the bottom end and just leave the cover off and still degree the cam.

i dont think so, those guys are going to be fast. and im not set up for 1/8 mile and if i want to use the car on the street then set up for 1/8 mile will give me a cruzing speed of about 13 mph. lol
