Big thanks to LME

Big thanks to Brian over @ LME for hooking me up with machine work and bottom end assembly. They got everything done in a week!

I've just about got everything put back together now. Just gotta torque everything and put the intake, valve covers, and accessories on. Can't wait to fire it up. Should have it back in the car by Sunday.

I'd be happy with anything ~450. I'm still running LS6/P&P stock TB until I can afford a 90/90 setup... and I still need to upgrade the fuel system. I'm gonna drag it over to LMR next week for the tune.

Sounds like a strong set up man! That's about what we need in our white SS. I think it'll reach 450.

Keep us updated!

Motors in the car now.. just need some coil brackets to bolt up to the valve covers, valve cover gaskets, and bolt up the tranny and it should be ready to fire.
