Got some work done today.
Its been over 3 years since i ordered the LS1 brakes i finally installed one side.
Painted the radiator hold-down. 20140430_010642.jpg 20140430_014952.jpg 20140429_200403.jpg 20140429_220701.jpg 20140430_004226.jpg 20140430_004236.jpg

I spoke too soon
N2O is
definitely going in
New trans and converter coming soon.
Thinking about upgrading the turbo (again) to a 62, 63 or 64/65
Haven't gotten out of the high 11ns yet but already looking for mid 10ns :confused:
Lots of fiberglass will also be added
Going to start with a Pin-On hood and plastic inner wheel wells.
Going for 3300# with my fat ass in the car.
 
Well it looks like my run at the 11.50s is coming to an end without me reaching my goal.
I am already making the plans to do another heart transplant on the Chevelle. And sadly enough it isn't going to be a V6. The good thing about it is that the Engine is going into my 86 GN so I'll continue looking for the elusive 11.50s with a V6 in that car.
Even though the Chevelle is getting a heart transplant it will still be a Turbopowered68.
I will still update this thread as the undoing gets underway and finished. I will however start a new thread on the new build once i finish up the undoing of the V6.
