Default New here, longtime lurker!

Hey guys & gals,

I'll keep it short i promise! I'm a longtime member on several Duramax forums from when i used to race/pull in that world. Anyhow, I recently finished up my 78 Trans Am build and now want to LS Swap it! So i've been lurking and reading to figure out exactly which way i want to go.Currently it has a mild 406 SBC with a 4spd Muncie behind it.

I look forward to getting to know many of you, and yes.. I know how the search function works

Figured i'd give a little update..

Got the engine back from the builder. 416 LS3 Stroker! American Powertrain T-56 behind it. TMI seats (they sit a little high right now). I've also got PTFB G-Braces and Roll bar but neither fit unfortunately. The rollbar would work for Fisher tops but not Hurst so will have to make some modifications to that. The G-Braces also have an awful fit. I noticed a lot of guys complained about this and went with the adjustable setup in exchange but i don't have time for that unfortunately.

Oh, and here's my wife's Olds i just finished up. First one i've painted entirely myself
