Sick build!

 

Hot side and DP are painted with the 2000* stuff and then wrapped thick. Each section of down pipe has 100' of wrap on it and each of the 2 short hotside pipes has 50' of wrap on them. Forearms where burning. Sending the stuff out to get coated adds 3 weeks of down time. The plan is to get it fired up ASAP in order to verify that the wiring to the new AEM standalone, relays and sensors is working correctly. Then the interior can go back in the car. Then it comes to me for a couple days of tuning. I have to learn the AEM software still so I am allowing a little time for that. Better to under promise and over deliver. Then make a few passes to make sure all is well. By that time, he should have repaired the damage that this build has done to his marriage and THEN he can get the **** coated. LOL

 

we all been there....so honey how much did it really cost US you getting this car for you...lol....well i did a favor for favor....you know my friend the one that works with fast cars yeah that one.....lol

 

here's a picture of the kit back on the car with hot side pipe's wraped

 

.....and we added the oil feeds, drains, and most of the vacuum fittings.

Computer should be here soon and then it'll be show time.

 

Turned out sweet!

 

Nice build

I wonder how long the vband to cast iron welds will hold up

 

Sick!

 

lt1boost has been doing it to stock lt1 manifolds for a long time. As long as you heat the cast iron before welding the steel to it and allowing it to slowly cool it'll be fine.

Where did you guys put a coolant overflow? Also what did you guys use?

 

Looks awesome, can't wait to see it run.

 

talk to aem today i will the ecu thrusday so maybe we will fire it up thrusday night

 

See the shinny cap right in the center on the bottom of the pic? That's the overflow. It's a race car overflow that they sell at Murray's. I think it's their brand CHM or something like that.

The catch can will be moving to the back of that fender well by where the PCM used to go.

 

looks great!

 

Steve, Los, and Joe - Looks amazing! Great work as always.

Jake at Power by the Hour is sponsoring an Outlaw Street Car challenge at PBIR. I think that it will be towards the end of August. Rules are that the car must be street legal (tagged and registered), have all factory interior with all the body panels (backseat delete allowed), working lights and signals, factory glass, stock style suspension and a 275/60/15 maximum drag radial. Hopefully we'll be able to make it with this car. Steve is going to try to play also.
