too funny eric, i just replied in your thread on LS1gto, lmao
i saw that, congrats on getting a GOOD build this time. Now you should be darn near bullit proof, time to up the turbo,
and and "aes390" is an AES 390ci motor.

well, the engine is on the stand, STILL, no help to put it in, lol. Went yesterday morning and picked up all my fittings to tap the oil pan for the return and also picked up my freshly redone truck manifolds. I had some Vbands welded on them. They look sick!!
so, now, i sit where ive been for awhile, lol. engine on stand waiting to be installed. When i get the motor in, ill start a new build thread with the front mount, TC78 will be here tuesday and i sold my turbo last week.

thats the EGR partition, for lack of a better word.
i was going to use the stockers since i couldnt get these to work, then a local GTO guy, who happens to be a machinist and welder told me he could weld on these Vbands for me.
Which happened to work out great because i COULD NOT find any flanges for the damn things. lol, the stockers that is.

hey, whats going on buddy. lol. thanks for the compliments, im pretty excited to see what kind of power i can make on this setup before this motor pops too. lol
im def thinking the trans will break soon and looking to move towards a th400.
im supposed to put the lq4 in on monday and tuesday, and start fabbing the front mount turbo setup.
oh, and thanks again for the old bolts, they worked great once i cut a groove them.
