Got my head studs and new cam in
Also pulled the oil pan to drill and tap for oil feed/return
Then got bored and decided to see how the 6LE gauge vent looked. I had to use a dremel for a good fit. It doesnt look to bad

I dont see a reason to swap from a 78 to an ls6. And im fairly confident this turbo will net me the power im looking for. When i decide to want over 750+ rwhp, ill consider a better turbo. But this on3 76mm will get me the 650-700 i want.
Well, got some work done today, not much, but my fuel system is done, what a pain in the as that was! had to make multiple store runs.Only managed to get this picture. For anyone wondering, if you dont already know, with Nasty N8s sumped tank, you will need longer bolts for the straps!!

I Got alot more then what i just posted done, just didnt take pictures. I ran the wiring harness/pcm, replaced front passenger and driver side brake line. Waiting on my SJM ABS delete kit to come in, but other than that, its ready to have the motor/tranny stabbed in and then just wire up gauges! I should be finished up this week and headed to the dyno!!
found out the hard way with the longer bolts when I was installing my tank too. I though something was getting caught, i fought it for about an hour before I gave up and just bought some longer ones LOL
Car is looking good though!

hahaha ya, i was like WTF why isnt this fitting, thought i had a fitment issues, but the straps cleared, so i went and got longer bolts, and it fit like a glove, nice and tight! Picking up my built 6 speed tomorrow morning! And yes, ive already heard i should do auto, but its a street car, with RARE trips to the track. Now, after searching for a dam brake booster hose, just decided ill make my own, I'm going to pickup a check valve that fits the booster from o reillys, and run a 5/8 hose to back of intake. I'll get more progress pics up as soon as the SJM abs delete kit comes in. Once thats here, ill get that knocked out and the motor/tranny dropped in!!
Front pic of what intercooler looks like with bumper on! Kind of thinking about pulling bumper off again and using the dremel to cut the center section out to allow more air to get to the Intercooler, what do you all think?
More news, Havent gotten alot done, been waiting on unexpected parts to come in! Heres what i've done while waiting!
Gauges/boost controller all wired up and in place! Just waiting to put motor/turbo in to finish plumbing the vacuum lines for boost controller solenoid.
Vacuum Block mounted and tucked away underneath the cowl, completley out of view. Pain in the ***, had to take measurements with motor out to make sure it would clear where its mounted. BoV/WG/FPR boost lines arent hooked up yet.
Motor ready to be dropped in, which ill be doing later! That just leaves the tranny! I should be rolling out to the dyno this weekend!
