Talking PEPPE's finally almost done

BIG THANKS to Brian & Pecos @LME & Jay (big props to a damn good Tech), Ben, Mike, Franco, JD, Jonathan, Doug and the whole crew @GFORCE for doing an outstanding job.

She needs the hood painted still, spoilers done, badges are on, full repaint next month hopefully, dual 3" stainless cutouts are going on tomorrow at 7am :al: . Still breaking her in, 50 more miles & she'll have 500

Hopefully I found the high-end miss @5200 rpm, I'll be shifting @6900, think it was a bad coil, put some newer LS1 coils on tonight, cleaned it up under load, back to GForce for a fine-tune tomorrow on the dyno, hopefully she won't break up this time at WOT.

thanks guys, I suck @ the videos, plus at night they don't shoot well on this old digcam, can't wait to make another flyby video, might try and get one launching at HRP once I get used to the car.

What kind of wires are those? I have a LTcc ignition on tall valve covers too and looking for some wires. Do you still have power steering? I dont see your alternator on top so im guessing its on the bottom where the a/c compressor use to be, if so where did you get that pulley for the original alternator position?

It has the SpeedSpecialty relocation bracket, keeps your ac and powersteering...I'm too old to do manual steering and park ... The pulley comes with the bracket, talk to JD at SpeedSpecialty, $200 bucks gets you everything you need except the belt, took Jay about 3 tries till we found the right one.
