Very nice!!! I've been formulating a plan to replace my LT1 with a big inch LS3, so I'll be watching to see how yours turns out for sure So what's the plan for the topend of this motor?

tfs 215 heads and a ported fast 90. harland sharp rockers, patriot extreme springs, ls7 lifters (bad caddy experience), and tfs pushrods.

And just out of curiousity, why did you choose the TFS/FAST 90 top-end combo over a set of ported LS3/L92s? Just curious, cause I was thinking of the latter for my LS3 build up...

ya already had em plus alot of the reading i did i think id want them anyways. this isnt some high rpm race car.
Looks good man. I just ordered my 416 today and heads today. It looks like you went with a little better parts on the bottom end but I went with the TFS 235's instead of the 215's. If I can sell my cam I am going to have Pat G spec me some thing in your range. It will be a pretty good comparison between the two motors when they are done. The rest of the parts look about the same. What headers are you running? I am still debating selling my 1 3/4" LG Pros.
