Default New Motor Is In !
Finally , after getting jerked around by that liar and thief Chris Galineau @ APE, I had some great friends that assemblled me a motor locally. new motor:
347
New LS6 crank
Oliver connecting rods and ARP bolts
JE Pistons
LS6 Oil Pump
G5X3 cam
MTI stage II R heads freshened up
11:1 cr
The car feels strong even in this killer heat. I'll get some track times next week. The car runs awesome and has great oil pressure!! Thanks to fellow board members BlueBallz and Mechman for all the motor work and installs. Also Bill00Formula for the use of his garage!! Its great to have my car back. Dyno#s and track times to follow soon!!

Paul
