LT1 SS progress pics
Just thought I would post a few pics of the progress of my car. Basically the same setup, except-
painted engine compartment/undercarriage
rebuilt engine/more head work, replaced rearend
BS3 with staged injection
tubular k-member, replaced suspension (mostly with 1LE pieces)
Replaced standard GT61's with ball bearing GT61's.

Thanks guys.
NA$TY-TA- Yes, 2 completely seperate fuel systems actually.
Stock tank/93 octane walbro intank feeds 1st set of injectors.
7.8 gal fuel cell/C16 walbro inline feeds 2nd set of injectors which spray on top of the 1st set when they reach 80% (or whatever programmed) duty cycle.
So, I will be able to cruise around indefinitely on 93 octane, and race fuel will only be used when needed.

why twins and not one big one??? Noob in the house... i've thought about turboing my LT1 and first thought was Twins because of some vids i've seen of Twin Turbo F-bodies and it's sick but everyone says that twins really are not as great as one big turbo...

Thanks everyone.
Got Me SOM- Should make at least the same, but if it's a hundred or so better I won't be suprised.
RICE ETR- Never used this fuel line before. It did cost about twice as much as the regular stainless braided line though (and probably not as durable), but I like the way it looks, and it doesn't scratch anything.
1CAMWNDR- It's a Currie 9in, which I modified for 3 channel ABS, and also had it powdercoated. Aluminum strange center, with Detroit true-trac diff, 31 spline axles, and 3.27 gears.
onfire- Using the same intercoolers, but I'm building some ducting to them. The cores are 15wide by 6in tall 4.2in thick.
CONVERTED- For the power level I wanted, twins are the only way I could do it and still keep all the accessories. A big single would have meant eliminating the A/C.
