Excited! 6liter swap!
 
Excited to have my 6 liter iron block swap 95 Trans Am back and anxious to get some numbers on the dyno. Pretty basic build:

Brought Josh at Spartan LSX a 2011 L96 in OCT 2015 for a tear down and refresh.
Custom grind by Cam Motion
Ported 823 heads with LS3 valves
LS3 intake, injectors, etc.
Brought the guys the car, clutch, QP fab9, and a few more goodies August 2016. They've hit a few rough patches in there but hopefully I'll post some videos and numbers soon.

We'll see how it goes! I'm pumped.

Very nice. I hope you enjoy the new engine and added cubes.

IronThomas 03-31-2018 04:08 PM

Still no car... But should be close. .

You've been patient to wait this long. I hope everything works out for you.

IronThomas 04-12-2018 05:25 PM

Maybe within a week..

Josh will take care of you. Should run good.

IronThomas 04-12-2018 06:47 PM

Oh yeah!

Does Spartan LSX do machine work?

IronThomas 04-13-2018 10:04 PM

I do not believe so. I had some done through them.

What’s the cam specs and what headers and exhaust you running?

IronThomas 04-16-2018 11:56 AM

Still nothing, boys....

Not to say anything about the shop since I don't know them, but its been more than 2 and a half years and your car isn't done. I understand that it's an lt style car but that's a long time to wait for a build.

IronThomas 05-05-2018 01:37 PM

Hopefully we'll hear something monday

IronThomas 06-27-2018 08:20 AM

Maybe this weekend?

2 years? Hopefully it gets you the numbers you're looking for.

ledesordre 06-29-2018 09:36 AM

I've been building my car for like 10 years so don't worry about it. lol

IronThomas 07-10-2018 09:13 PM

Just reaching out for some help, we can't get the steering column to mate properly with the manual rack.

95 Firebird
LS motor
LS k member, manual steering rack, and "intermediate shaft" (the link between the rack and column)

Do I need an LT1 intermediate shaft for a manual rack?

​​​​​​Do I need an entire steering column out of an LS car?

Or should it work and I need another k member and rack?

FYI: column is hard against the header and they're saying there is too much toe in the front wheels and I'm maxed out in adjustment..
