Nice. What size wheel/Tire will you be running on the rear? I've been trying to get some pics of a 4 link install from the underside of a car, so I can try and get an accurate location for my 1/12th scale Camaro. My wheels will be done today and I'd like to get started back on it. Let me know if you can help?!?

I'd love to take credit for the installation of all the work you see in these pics, but I have to give credit to Wayne Due. Wayne is the one doing the work on my Camaro.

Your car is coming along real nice. :thumbsup: What are the specs of the motor? 346 Ls1 with AFR's?

Datsbad

Looks like a LS2 to me

The absense of knock sensors in the middle give it away and the front timing cover .

Looks good man . Are those heads out of the box or have they been built . I personally would never bolt on a set of heads right out of the box from any of those companys. Just curious.

Fill us in on the motor????? I see a little something famillar in the background :unibrow: Overseas maybe???

What inclined you to go with a Strange rear diff. over a Moser? I am unsure about which one I should go with for my A-body, and I am trying to get some different opinions.

LS2 block,
Eagle 4.0" crankshaft,
Callies 6.125" H beam rods,
Wiseco custom forged pistons(4.03" 1.110CH 26cc rev. dome lat. gas ports, NPR stainless chrome rings
Federal Mogal 152M mains,
Clevite cb663 H rods brgs, Dura Bond cam brgs,
ARP main studs
Cam Motion custom LS1 camshaft
Roll master double roller timing set w/ torington bearing & nitrided gears.
Comp cams lifters
ARP LS2 head stud kit
Cometic head gaskets
Jesel Rockers
Comp cams push Rods #7955-16

I just didn't have time to build this engine, I built the engine in my last car 396 LT4 and I know how long it takes to verify all the clearances and assemble the engine.

So I enlisted the help of LME (late model engines) in Texas

The motor is 9:1 compression and it is built so I can run twin turbos.
The heads are ported and polished and I sent them down to Texas to assemble the long block. I'll put the rest of the engine together, also I'll build the headers and get the turbos on there.

It will have a FAST intake, throttle body, and fuel rails. it will run on a Big Stuff 3 computer.

I had a strange 12 bolt in my last car and was really happy with it so I went with it again.

You gotta go with what has worked in the past i guess

what is the intake above the motor in the background.

Sounds sweet, twins would be real cool !

I'm not sure what the intake on the bench is. Its not for my car. I can't afford the intake you used. I had to go with a FAST intake.
I'll ask and find out for you and maybe get a better picture.

Good point on the Knock sensors, that engine definately has some nice parts in it. Actually, your whole project does. :hail:

Jason, what do you think of the ETP heads? I just ordered a set of 215's and was going to bolt them on out of the box. What do you think?

Datsbad

Honestly a fast intake and twin turbos would be alot easier to plumb, tune etc...

Tuning speed density is quite a task . But with big stuff3 or Fast etc.. It would definately easier

Datsbad looks like the intake in the background was an Harrop intake from Austrailia like yours.

I sure thought so, Thanks Jason
