I used a drill and some attachments on most of it. Like using a big Dremel tool. That's what took so long, having substandard equipment to work with. I spent TWO MONTHS on it on weekends and after work, sometimes till 1am at night.

Nice work! Now get an ls6 valley cover so you can get rid of the pcv lines that will run between the intake manifold and the valve covers!

I wish it was FI, but for now it has a 236/236 cam and all bolt ons. I guess 400rwhp or maybe a lil' better. The intake is nice, but I hope the extra heat wont kill much power. Everybody said 3 hp.
