Sorry guys. fixed the post. I will get a few pics tonight and the rest as they come.

Enjoy!!

 

Interesting build. Sounds like a damn beast. Post up pics when you can man.

 

Love these cars! In for pics and updates!

 

Here are a few pics of the car and the first part of the build.

 

Here are a few parts that showed up today. I will post pics as parts show up and as soon as work starts.

Here are the UMI Performance Adjustable Extended Length Lower Control Arms. TCI Flexplate 4L80E to LS, and some diff fluid.

 

Here is a few more pics. LSX LS7 CNC heads, GM Preformance Carb style manifold, and GM Corvette accessory drive.

 

More presents from the brown Santa/ UPS. Moser 9" with all the good stuff! GM LSX headgaskets.

 

UMI upper adjustable control arms, 304 stainless mandrel bent 3" pipe for custom exhaust, V band clamps, and merge pipes for electric cut outs. 4L80 crossmember.

 

That's going to be a nasty four door. I love those cars I've always wanted one. jealous

 

RPM level 6 4L80E, Precision Industries 3 disc 3800 stall converter, and PCS transmission controller. Spintech Sportsman 3" stainless steel mufflers. Tear down starts monday with pics to follow!!!!

 

Pics of the old diff getting ready to come out and the moser 9" ready to go in.

 

Sick build!!! I love the Impala SS...

Keep us posted on the build..

 

Old diff out. New Moser 9" in with extended length UMI upper and lower control arms. Old 2.5" exhaust out. RPM 4L80E test fit and WOW!!! fits pretty well, a little massage here and there it will fit just fine. The new 3" exhaust should fit really nice with the tubular 4L80E crossmember.

 

RPM 4L80E is in and after a little tunnel work fit is perfect. All the blower and accessories removed and looks like we have some extra work to install the A/C. New LSX LS7 heads are next as soon as the porting is done.

 

You are officially my new best friend!

Good luck on the build, the car definitely looks like a hell of a beast. I'm building my stroker for mine as we speak. I'm about 40ci short of you though lol.

 

Wow! Just saw this build. Got any updates on it?
