Quick question on the ABS is it a stand alone system that anyone can buy or are you piecing it together with your knowledge of the system ?

I pieced together the system myself based on a 2006 - 2007 Corvette Delphi system. If you trick the module to think it is still in a Corvette it will work. I did a custom cal To remove all base chassis controls and traction control. I used the same system in Red Devil and Mayhem. Before a get a ton of questions about it I do not want to give out the cal due to the complexities of the system. It took me 2 years to get it to work flawlessly on Red Devil. I do this stuff as a hobby and don't mind helping some people but I feel the custom ABS stuff and wiring maybe over most peoples head. Also the failure modes are bad.

That is what I thought and I understand the complexity and it is way above my knowledge base. Just impressed that you were able to create a working system in a vintage car.

Don, you are correct. My lawyer told me if I want to keep my house don't sell this system..... During development on this system it failed 20 during testing.

Bosch makes a system but cost around $7000 not counting the hardware. I used the Delphi stuff because I had some left over parts.

Custom ABS module
Custom wheel bearing to get the Pre-2009 non active wheel speed sensors
Custom axle ends to allow a Corvette ZR1 wheel bearing with a built in wheel speed sensor. Now a few companies sell the axle ends like Detroit Speed.

So if you want ABS the best way to go today is the Bosch stuff with production ZR1 wheel bearings.

Looks good! Can't wait to see it out!

[jarhead]

Looks like I overstated my post, lol...

Wasn't exaggerating my capabilities, was only saying you were building something a common guy may be able to attempt.

Then the ABS stuff came out, sorry I was wrong...

Already in love with it...

Hey Mark, loving this car!

I have a question for the group.
Does the OEM LT-4 Dry Sump pan work with a factory subframe or is an aftermarket version required?

Thanks!

[NAPA 68]

Mark,

If you can elaborate (at this point), what you did for the fuel system? Additionally, does the FED fit into the subframe any better than your experiences with the LS7 / 9 combo?

Looking forward to seeing more. Always enjoyable to follow your builds.

Mark,

Great build again. I'm working on my own LT4 upgrade, on track for later this summer. Did you change out the supercharger for the 2017 version, or just the lid? And any hints as to what you did for that power steering pump?

Thanks, Scott

The LS 7 pan and the dry sump LT4 pans are very close so from that data I would say the LT4 dry sump pan will not fit the stock Fist Gen Camar subframe. But, Holley is doing a LT wet sump pan that should fit.
