Thanks man!! I can't wait till this project is finally done. It's been a long time since I started the research on putting an LS1 based engine in.
If all goes well, the car should be done by August.

A death at the shop set the project back, still probably 6 weeks or so away from completion. Newest pics (of the engine) are up, just click on the link in the sig.
Just got the word yesterday that the engine is now IN the car. More pics to come soon.

Very nice...I like the 4th gen spoiler on the rear. Just curious how the lines of the spoiler line up with the square body lines of the 3rd Gen. Does it look out of place or like it actually belongs there?

The T56 I bought used for $1100.
