BTR Shaft Rocker system is finally home in my garage. Going to send my exhaust for a full ceramic coating before re-installing as well. Hopefully find some time this weekend to complete the trunnion upgrade on my stock rockers, and get the heads on so I can measure pushrod length.

Im still planning on rebuilding/replacing the entire C5 drivetrain in my garage. This may be the one that puts me over the edge though.

Will be good to have the Camaro back up with a fresh T56 though, it’s been 3 years already since it started getting stuck in gear and I said F it.
If you can swing it, get the new T-56 Magnum F. Shifts like butta.

Funny you say that because the wife and I decided that just this week. Less of a headache and I can just sell off my T56 to someone who wants to deal with it. 🍻

Fast LSXR 102mm intake manifold, 105mm Big Mouth TB. New lid and MAF, PRC227 heads, bigger cam (getting with TSP, BTR and GPI as suggestions), new oil pump, new water pump, fix trans and rear. Once it's drivable again I'll bring it home and start ordering suspension parts one piece at a time then change out trans and rear end. I need it drivable so I can start turning my daily 07 classic 1500 WT into an off roader cause the wife wants to start doing off road things after seeing that 4wheeler show from power block. I told her it's cheaper to mod the truck than for me to buy her a wrangler or bronco lol

My tuners dyno reads around 35rwhp to 40rwhp lower than a dyno jet from my experience so I'm hoping to make around 450rwhp on his dyno

It sounds like a good combo, I would think it should run in the 10's.

Picked up a new ride. Wife and I bought this 01 zo6 and then drove it off the lot and straight to Vegas. Was an absolute blast. I know it’s an old vette but it’s a blast to drive. Probably paid to much at 23k as well with 42k miles, but oh well. Only live once

Not a bad price for the market and current mileage. They are a blast. I cant wait to throw the c6z shocks and new suspension bushings in mine.
