So....it's been a while since I've updated. Good NEWS!! It's now running!! Actually, it started on the very first crank and settled to a decent idle. A BIG thanks to Steve Williams (Frost) for the start-up base tune...nice job! Now, I can't wait to get this thing fully tuned. In the mean time, I still have a few bugs to work through on the car....so no time to tune it yet.
Anyway...some update pictures....

Final update... It's been a long haul, but it's pretty-much done now. Just need to tune it on a dyno, and swap the rear end when I feel up to it. It's fun, no doubt....but now it's on to the next project. See picture # 2 for a hint of what's to come 
Parts are all on order now for the LS/t56 swap, and the new project should be completed MUCH quicker than the Firebird was.

Some have asked how the condenser fits in this setup. Well, it's an aftermarket condenser that was "massaged" in to it's current home. This is the best pic that I have available of it installed. Hope this helps some of you.
