Default APS installed...402ci

well its been a long time coming but its finally installed and running. still needs to be tuned and dyno'd etc but i figured id post some pics of the engine bay. i also fabed up the stock air lid assembly to cover up the intercooler...came out pretty decent and completely hides any trace of a intercooler.

here are some specs:
-ls2 402ci
-dragonslayer crank
-compstar rods
-15cc Diamond pistons
-arp bolts
-double roller
-slp oil pump
-bone stock L92 heads
-dual springs
-Yella Terra L92 rockers
-HSW custom turbo cam
-stock l76 intake w/NW 90
-Nasty Fuel rails
-60# injectors
-racetronix dual intank pump
-areomotive regulator
and im sure whole lot more that ive forgotten. im using stock heads as a little experiment but im sure ill end up swapping them out eventually for a set of trickflows. anyways....here are the pics....ill try to have a vid up as soon as we're ready to dyno.

before it went in:







installed:










and with the lid installed....what intercooler??!?!?









well...there ya have it. id like to thank Nick and Matt at HarrisSpeedWorks for all their Help. thanx JM for your insight on my recent issue...(figured out what the trouble was BTW).
ill have some vids posted up within the next few weeks as tuning gets done and more miles get put on the bran new engine.

thanx everyone

Rick
