Looks great!
What are your plans for the engine?

canrc
12-24-2009, 11:36 AM
The engine is going to be an LS motor, but the type of forced induction that is going to be attached to it is still up for debate... But hopefully I will make a decision soon!

Yeah no worries, always glad to help. I want to get more work done on my car down the road. It's a mild build compared to yours. So I would like to see yours when done. Any plans for a debut or completion?

Yes, the engine should be here soon! I can tell you that it's an LS3, with a few mods ;).... It's being built by Dan over at Wegner. I will have more details and pics in the next couple weeks, and I can't wait to see it!

Can you tell me where you got the coil pack relocation parts, and did it come with plug wires, or did they get custom made?

Killer ride.. loving the pics!:thumbsup:

I have been making coil relocation brackets for about a year now. you can mount them anywhere.
http://www.automotivedesigneng.com/products/coil_pack.html

Matt (69MSA) has a set on his car. I sell them on eBay. There may be more members here with them, not sure.

The wires you an buy a set of make your own length kit from MSD 32079.

Im working on that section of the website,
the Jam vents and taillights are just place holders on the website.

And got the wiring harness cleaned up under the hood -- man GM uses allot of plastic loom! I cleaned it up and replaced the plastic split loom with some braided stuff.

.... man GM uses allot of plastic loom! I cleaned it up and replaced the plastic split loom with some braided stuff.

Yep, that's because plastic is cheaper. LOL!! I does look kinda cheesy though. I like that braided stuff myself. Good choice.:thumbsup:

I bought a pair from him -- the plan for the back seat is to match the fronts, I had Ron stitch the inserts for the rears to match the fronts. The Door panels are much like the seats black leather with a perforated alcantara insert and some red stitching.

One small step....

Had to post this just because this sub was a pain in the a$$ to get to fit properly -- the mid range speakers are still missing the speaker grills which are being made.

I will have updates this weekend for sure! Just trying to resolve this fuel issue. The right bank of injectors is getting a dump of fuel -- maxing out at 25% more! I think we got it narrowed down to the O2 sensors going to get some NTK's today and hopefully that fixes the issue.

Thanks Lenie -- these were made by a local guy that did my interior, he did use the fronts as a guide. They are fastened from behind and underneath the car. If you need any information if you still have my number give me a shout or just PM me and I can send it to you again.

Sorry Raj, I have a question too. Not ready for interior yet, but since we're on the subject, I'll ask. I'm going to be using Recaro's too. Are your rear seats just Recaro buckets with the headrests removed? And if so, after removing the headrest, did you have to do anything special to remove the hardware that held the headrests? I want to do the same, but I'm a little skeptical to buy 2 more Recaro's just to remove the headrest, then have to get the headrest hardware removed and then recovered.

No problem at all Marcus -- the rears aren't a set of Recaro's, the interior guy traced out the front and fiberglassed a set of rears. They are narrower than the fronts because of the wheel tubs. I did take a look at my fronts the headrests are easy to remove if you go that way but you would still have to get a new set of seat jackets if you remove the hardware that the headrest lock into. If you do choose to go that way I am sure that Ron at JJ Custom Interiors can make you a set without the headrests but you are probably better to get a set of rears made to fit your car rather than trying to fit a set of fronts to your car. I did have Ron stich the Recaro logos for me when he did my fronts so they matched.

The drive back from the Dyno was fun!! Burnout videos here we come! Bryan wants me to bring it back after I fix this heat issue associated with the mufflers -- looks like I have to ditch the flowmaster for something that retains a little less heat.

I peeped that, cuz I am considering either one 10W7 or two 8W7's in the rear deck myself. With my first build, I had two 12W7's in the trunk. Crazy, stupid bass...way too much. Now, I'm downgrading to either one 10 or two 8's like I said. How do you like the single, 10W7?

I love the sound and the range of the 10" vs 2 8" -- I have had both setups and the ability of the 10" to get lower is a big plus for me and I always like the look of the single sub in the rear deck that way it also left me enough room on either side for my components. I will say the w7 is a bit of a pain interns of install and wieght but is well worth it!
