Wow thats beautiful! I love how those tires say MT Street, but then it's followed by for drag racing use only, Not for highway use. I wonder if you can say your not on the highway. LOL

Man I sure hope you use the FAST LSXRT!!

I have been on the fence getting one with my turbo set up due to the consensus that they'll leak under boost.

PLEASE USE IT AND REPORT BACK. I would love to use one if they work.

The snowball effect is real! LOL! Thanks for the heads up on the stock crank. When did you snap it? 1/2 mile, 1/4 mile? Also, what head gaskets were you using at that power level? Ever push any water?

Finally got the car back from the paint shop. Turned out sick! Turns 3 different colors depending on which angle the sun is reflecting. Blue, Turquoise and purple.

Thanks bro! Big brakes will help this thing slow down...lol! I'm entertaining the idea of running some half mile stuff also. This is gonna be a dedicated street car that sees the track once in a while. Front rotors are 13" and rears are 11" with dual calipers. I also plan on running street wheels on it.

Sweet-I have an 82 El Camino with no drivetrain, thinking of another LS swap-I have a 65 Buick Special with an LS/turbo, I was thinking of twin turbos on the EC, or a Whipple style supercharger
What size tire did you get under the rear
Holley has a swap kit that I was thinking of using-i'll be watching your build
