I started to do some panel work, Deleting all the trims on the body line on the side of the car. Other than that the plan is just a nice paint job in the same original colour.

Finally got the thing started, just to make sure everything is ok.
Oil pressure is low and there is a knocking noise down low in the engine.

I figure this thing requires a decent diff setup. So i got a junk 9 inch for a good price, sourced new bearings, aluminium pinion support and detroit tru trac LSD (31spl). I will also fit billet axles and disc brakes to the rear aswell. Whilst it is out i will replace all the bushes and box in the lower trailing arms.
I am leaving the old 2.75:1 gears in it for now

This is the start of the project when it turns into a 383 LS1. Because of knocking noise and low oil pressure i stripped it down and decided to build it up. I think someone at one stage has fitted a too big of a cam to it as every single intake valve had hit the pistons and all the intake guides were sloppy.
