SAM Taylor Buick Cadillac in FWB FL amazing prices for GM parts you would have to ship it but I went to a chevy dealership with a service dept and they wanted 110 for a LT4 knock module with a week to get it and sam taylor had it for 32 and in stock (mind you this was back in 2002 when LT1s were the cool swaps)

Pics please! Is it a t6 Turbo? I didn't want to dent the fender well too much because I run z06 wheels on the street. Too much and they'll rub around turns. Pics please!

Ok I got the wrong rockers again... the part number on the packages is correct but the part is wrong. They sent me straight rockers which work on the exhaust side, but the part number 12569167 that i need is for the offset ls3 l92 intake rocker. It must be a mix up at the GM plant or something. Sent the rockers back and waiting for the correct ones to arrive.

ok got my rockers and cam installed! also picked up a set of those ebay fabricated valvecovers, i must say they look great! they have 1/2in billet rails and the welds look excellent. im ready to do the engine swap now but my brother manny is deep into his project now. hes putting vette suspension in his 68 camaro and he built his own subframe from scratch. the other option is to put the motor in n/a at my other brother artys house. art built the first setup with the sbc. god i wish i had my own garage to work in! heres some pics.
