I don't no if you posted this, but what gear did you end up going with in the moser?

 

Are the LT's coated???

 

I got 3.89s inside from a friend. 4.11s seem the way to go but at this moment, i just want to get the car running then i'll go from there after feeling out the 389s

Nope, not coated. But I will be wrapping them up today. yeah, not good for long term bcuz of rust issues or what not but it works!

 

Soo.. came to a stop with my rear end... can anyone help?

The bracket that holds the Brake line and E-brake line is too narrow to fit over the Moser bracket where the LCA and brake line bracket meets.. Any tips on what i should do next? I tried bending the bracket a little wider but that didnt work..


Second question..
Seems like im also having some issues with my brake lines. The brake lines doesnt seem like they have the right bends to clear the moser. (The brake lines were never bent or twisted when removed from the stock 10 bolt)
What should i do? Bend the lines to make it fit? im confused here...




third question.
I have a 4 channel car. is the pic below a 3 channel setup? If so, can i swap that out to one that has the sensors on there?

 

Look what came in tonight!
I was able to squeeze a few parts in before i called it a night, ls6 ported oil pump, ls2 chain, ms3 cam. more tomorrow!
Some good stuff from TSP. thanks Jon!

 

First question, cut off one side of the bracket so that it doesn't have to wrap all the way around the lower control arm mount. Its fine, I did this when installing my LCA relo brackets. Second I would carefully bend the brake lines just a tad to get them to clear, be gentle. not sure about 3 bc I'm not familar with the 12 bolts.

 

THANKS FOR THE ADVICE! For the channel situation, i probably will just have to delete the ASR for now.

 

making some progress finally...


old and new.

 

looks good

 

How is the PTV clearance with the MS3 and the heads?

 

the specs of the cam: 237/242,603/.609, 112 LSA
w dual valve springs at .650

Nice build. Good to see a local guy building a car with all the right parts.
