Another nice KYTP build!
You may have already answered this, but do the fuseboxes need to be relocated? What about the A/C drier?
F-body engine bays really make you think about where your going to put stuff!

more pics Hey here's some pics of the emblem and the engine. Kind of hit a snag with the stud nuts. I'm missing 26 of the sob's. That doesn't do very good for clamping loads on a lsx block lol. I went ahead and mocked them up anyways because I'm dying to get this thing done. Nuts should be in the mail so I'll have this thing wrapped up soon. Holidays sure slowed everything down! You do have to move the a/c dryer and relocate the fuse blocks. Some brackets, a/c line extensions and move the radiator and you should be close to good. I'm sure there's a few other things that I'll encounter, but that is the nature of the beast. Anyways here's the pics.

EEEAAAASSSYYY now! I don't want to have to sic my guard cat on ya! No I'm not doing solid mounts. I am just doing a bmr turbo k and the stock motor mounts. That's not a bad thing right? Hopefully the nuts for my studs will be in some time this week. I'm ready to get the motor wrapped up!

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I'm glad I chose to have Josh build the kit rather than going with some of the other options I was looking at. I am perfectly at ease with the build. I know the kit is going to be stellar when it is done. Still no nuts for the studs yet so no pics for now. I'll be researching the fuel system and the cooling setup here pretty quick when the weather isn't so cold (don't feel like freezing my butt off in the garage right now). I'll post more pics as Josh sends them though. Chris
updates! Well it didn't actually take this long to get the nuts for my studs to put the heads on, but between the business and dragging my *** at home, the project took a seat on the back burner. I did manage to get the heads mounted/torqued and the oil pump/windage tray/pickup tube and oil pan mounted up as well. I imagine after the end of the month I'll have more updates coming in steadily, but I'm busy trying to trim a little fat/ lifting to get ready for my vacation in cancun on the 27th. After that it'll be a complete focus on finishing this project. Next up will be addressing the wiring harness on the driver's side and finishing the battery relocate. Running 2/O wire to the back! I expect Josh to finish up on the kit this next week. He moved through Jeremy's kit rather quickly this weekend so I think he'll be primed and ready to finish my kit this next week. I can't wait to see this thing. I've looked at the pics so many times that I'm bug eyed lol. I'm really excited. Anyways here's some pics of the engine and it's progress.
