Nope. His was brand new.

Thanks Josh! I sent you the vid via phone that day, but it was awful sound quality. We're going to get the cooling system all fabbed up and mounted this week, so we can actually let it sit and idle now.

thanks man!

I'm nervously anxious about dynoing, as it's got a really power-robbing but dependable drivetrain. That and "at it's core" its a very simple motor setup. It will go 9's or it's going off a cliff is all i know, hahahahaha

Some updates, dont mind the dirt and dust . Radiator and water pump finally 100% mounted. Were just missing 8 AN fittings which will be in this week and the cooling system will be 100% complete! Also added a bumper/fender skeleton that's pretty much a straight ripoff of Mark Kohlers fender/bumper support. This allows us to take the whole front clip off in one piece and gives it ALOT of strength.

We are gettting there! haha its been a pretty hectic last few months and havent been able to put alot of time into it. We have been working on it pretty steady the last week or so and WILL have it driving by next weekend. we jsut have a few loose ends to button up

Oh damn I just realized I dont think we posted up that we swapped out the forged 346 for a Forged 408 Its got alot deeper tone to it and should be a good match for the S480.

Damn were really slacking in this thread! This was an interesting problem and ill post up some pics once I get it complete basicly you just take off the cam on the TB and flip it around so your still pulling toward the dack of the car to open it. Were using a Lokar cable with a custom bracket inside.
