you have about the best LSX install I have ever seen.no cluter,all motor,and a nice finish on everything.and to think I have never been a fan of fuel injection b/c typically you really don't see just motor, you see usually some many hoses and wire harness's around that the actuall motor is really not all that visible. you did a great job :hail:

Agreed - I think that it looks great.
It's hard (and unfair) to compare how an LS sits to how an SB sits and I think that yours is a great combination of cleanliness and performance.
Good work :thumbsup:

Its cool to see the progression of packaging and detail with each new motor build. Each one gets a little more hi-tech than the next. :thumbsup:

What ever happened to this build? Was it ever completed?

Steve, Scott, everyone...gorgeous cars!!!

I just had a quick, rather stupid question...the lower radiator hose used in this shot, do you remember what part nuber and where you grabbed it from? I have been having a bugger of a time finding one that works for me. I am working on a '78 Trans LS1 MagnaCharged set-up with an ZR-1 inspired paint scheme.

Thanks guys!
