Default lt1 custom sbc ps pump and alot more

so this year i made a sbc type 2 power steering pump conversion for my lt1 tt engine. im running a alternator conversion on the passanger side. redid my powder coating candy apple red. i painted the engine bay. and redid my interior so it fits over a wolfe mini tub. ( i had to modify the tubs) and i also made my own ls1 cluster. i got a new radiator and fans combo and new intercoolers. i also took out my upper core support and made it a bolt in. and my cold pipes are going over my radiator instead of under i jest got the engine back in and hopefulley have it running by this weekend. ill post pics but if you want to see something ill try and get a pic

tt383lt1 did you ever get your car tuned? Everyone was curious about what was going to happen then you totally stopped posting about it.

yep. i ran about 28 psi on the street but i was blowing threw the converter at 65x rwhp on 14 psi and 24 psi no change. so i gave up last fall and i did a little clean up while i got a new converter. but it runs awesome. I'm actully going up some on the psi. and doing a new dyno in a couple weeks after i make sure all the bugs are out. and here is more of the interior.
