I just ordered a bunch of ****.
HVAC delete plate
Plug wire set (DIY MSD for EFI 24X)
Billet front cover
Cloyes 3145 Timing Set
ARP head studs
ARP main studs
Cometic Head Gaskets
OBD II Knock Sensor
Install parts for the dual pumps
Truck Coils
Coil Brackets
Mcleod Street Twin
I have the guy assembling the short block ordering the oil pump, bearings, gaskets, seals, etc. As soon as the machine shop gets done installing the caps and line boring, we will be ready to start putting her together.
I'll post pics when we start on it.
Everyone wanting a delete plate, order them from Mike www.jakesz28.com and modify them yourself to retain heat, or just trim the dividing wall underneath the plate.
I think that's what I'm gonna do so I dont have the bulge in the plate. I'll probably end up mounting the LS computer on the delete plate as well.
Very excited to get it together!

Updated some pics guys. Engine should go in tomorrow. Gonna try and scrounge up enough fittings to do a custom coolant crossover deal. Hang the headers starter and intake on it. Prime the oil pressure and it will go on the K member.
As you can see in the pics I used Morel Link Bar Hydraulic Lifters, the pushrods are from Manton and are 5/16 .118 Wall hardened stock length. CSR EWP, AS&M Throttle Body, Nitrous Outlet Mono blade plate, LE ported 21* Trick Flow Heads, LE Race Ported LT1 Intake manifold. Etc Etc
The head work, porting, milling, valve job, etc from Lloyd is top notch. Even the engine builder said the work on the heads was very nice, and he doesnt usually brag on ****. His car runs 8s and has the best of everything so he usually wont postively comment on something unless it stands out as being top notch work.
Hopefully I'll be posting a first start vid soon.
