That's what I'm starting to think although that's a haul given my general lack of time. What's he usually charge?

I'm sure Ron @Pro Dyno Tech in Crawfordsville, IN would do it? Not positive positive on that though.

We'll see. I'm waiting to find out what Nate finds in the short block after the heads are off before I make any decisions.

My excuse is the military. They always plan drill weekends at the most incovenient time. Since we are on the topic of destruction, I hope fastbird's pistons don't end up like mine when I lost a timing belt on my damn dsm (doesn't stay moving).

So, we just did a class worksheet on perceptions and there were a bunch of items and you had to write down a name of who you thought in the class it applied to...for example..

Likes to cook..
drives a 5k car
drives a 20k car
is romantic
**** like that. A few people said me for "likes to cook" so that was cool, and then a few questions later my name came up again. This one was "Has seen an x-rated film in the past 3 months" and like 5 girls all said me. So I'm a guy who loves to cook while watching ****. Is this my life, does this **** happen to normal people??

I'll do the summary later tonight, I need to go do some homework for my class that is in an hour.

I found an ls2 intake with rails for what I believe is a good price, $150 + ship. So I just want to make sure that a ported ls2 intake manifold and 317 heads will be the best bang for the buck, and is the way to go before I buy it...

My stock converter bolts were similar, though I can't remember if they were 15 or 17 mm, I know they weren't 10 mm (again, this was on my car).

I concur with a rear cover bolt, those are 10 mm head, around 1" total length (including the head) and I believe an M8x1.0 thread.
I dropped it off at kelly chev. this morning. Its an 06 w/ 57k miles i bought brand new. Chevrolet pulled warranty on it, Turns out there is a TSB on the 3.4 motor. The oil pan bolts are falling out in the bellhousing. anyhow, i had them flush the trans while it was out. And its all fixed. Its nice having good friend as a service advisor. That just saved me a ton o money.

Ported LS2 or LS6 intake are going to be pretty close to each other with a turbo, but the LS2 has the benefit of the 90mm throttle body. It also has the downside of needing a 350 dollar Holley throttle body to get cable + hood clearance.

Tis up to you. That's a good price with rails, fo' sho'.

Hmm, whacky 3.4 motors. That's a weird layout where oil pan bolts can get in the bellhousing. Regardless, I'm glad you got it all figured out without being anything $$.

I claim the military as well, as starting soon I will be in OTS (officer training school), which will last for 3 months, and then right after that, I will be in pilot training for about a year and a half, so no shootout for me

Sean, just put the MAF back on it and have Herter tune it If you're not down for that, I reccomend taking it to Nates buddy Nick. Josh (Ponyhntr) swears by him as well, and there is another local FI guy that had him do the tune on his Camaro and it turned out great. The tune is extremly detremental, especially in an FI car. If anything you decide to skimp on, don't let it be the tune. Take it to someone that with no doubt in your mind will exceed your high expectations. (IMO, no one in the area will do a good tune for you).
