Just finished up putting on Pacesetter headers, y-pipe, SLP lid, MS3 cam, springs, rods, & LS2 timing set. Here's a video of the second start up. It's not tuned yet.

DAAAMN! Sounds very healthy! Nice!

 

Thanks man, I'm glad it turned out good. It was my first motor work I did by myself. Lots of help from ls1howto.com and lots of borrowed tools from dad. Did it all with no air and no power tools.

 

cam only?

 

The car was stock, I just put in the cam, springs, rods, timing set, & headers.

 

do you know if the prc 5.3 heads can be run with the ms3?

 

I believe so, I think I recall reading it's a good match. Not sure, check with a sponsor.

 

Yea if you let Texas Speed know when you order it so the can set up the proper valve drop.

Run a OEM thickness HG too. The gm MLS are nice pieces and cheap too..

 

Looks like you still have the stock LS1 intake if so you need to upgrade to atleast an LS6 intake to help that cam breath and do you have a stall I dont see one in your sig if not I would go with atleast a 4000 if I were you with a cam that big and your cars sounds mean.

 

nice dude! props for the DIY

 

I have the Ms3 myself what is your LSA? Sounds great, but that ls1 intake is going to bottleneck the **** out of your setup with that cam.

 

sounds good!!...I love the black wheels on your car! nice looking combo! tell us about the dyno when you do it!

 

Thanks man, wouldn't want it any other way. Letting someone do your engine work is like letting someone bone your girl. Had this car for 8 years now, I don want anyone elses fingers in it...

I'm looking around for a deal on an intake, I'm getting a stall in a week or two as well as stranos and slp bilstiens because it sets too low.

 

Thanks, I love them too. Don't see many black oem c6's around.

 

sounds good!

 

Ahhhh memories. Try doing that at 2:00 in the morning with open headers The neighbors no likey. "but sir, we had to start it to make sure it worked"

 

Haha! I did the same thing. The first startup was the night before I shot the video. It was only around 11, well when it started every light in the house next door came on including front, back, and garage porch lights. Damn old ladies...

 

Lol nice. Yeah the neighbor from two houses down comes out and says,"man that sounds real nice but can you not do it at 2 in the morning...." Btw good sounding car you got there sir.

 

yea you can but x2 on letting them know that your gonna run it with a ms3 so they can recess the valves. Im actally lookin at my ms3 and prc 2.5s right now. I had tsp set me up with the package and they recomened the mls gaskets and 7.4" pushrods to go along with some ls7 lifters and ls2 chain

 

Very nice sounding car. Cant wait for the numbers!
