    Build Update #1 : Disassembly...

    Well I figure it'd be fun to kinda do a build update every once in awhile. I get asked all the time what's going on with the car. Half the time it changes as i am telling people. So this time, we are just gonna let the pics speak for themselves. So here's the first set of pics and just some interior shots in case anyone hasn't seen them and wanted to.

    nope, reason why i didn't get it ready for KOTH, could only afford the 6pt right now and i hate doing things twice and affecting the 10pt install. AND another reason why i didn't run it more at the track. got lucky and made a couple of passes and had a friend pick up the slip. tint and night time make it hard to see inside, hahha

    and yes, i'mparting EVERYTHING OUT. everything LS1 related in the car, but i'm keeping the suspension and the rear end that i have. i just spent some money on the gear swap, so i have to keep it and it's getting narrowed.

    but the engine, trans, converter, shifter, headers, exhaust, computer, wiring harness, etc... all getting parted out. even the gauge cluster is coming out for some custom stuff. i got to relocate the gauges i currently have anyways. make it better looking.

    Swapping to the LT1 I see. You can only go so far on the LS1, then you have to suck it up and get the good motor.

    Seriously, pretty cool setup. Is it a big secret what you ran before all this?

    If you're really getting rid of the LS1 I say the best idea is to put in a forced induction stroked (400+inch) small block chevy.

    You know, it hasn't changed in the past week, so I'm saying that's pretty good so far

    just keep those motorplate measurements

    Not a big secret. I never got it's full potential out of it. Too many "half assed" things like the stock LS1 intake(not even an LS6) on it with stock throttle body and MAF on it, which the 382 never liked. it never got down to the weight i wanted it to be (3000-3100) it was 3400 w/ me in it. and only got to run it on the 75 shot.

    I thought about doing an LT1, but for the same price i'd rather just stick with the LS1.

    So for now, it's just concentrating on getting everything OUT of the vehicle, and then worry about what's going in after that.
