There’s a headliner that goes on top of that. It’s the highest I can make without removing the head liner. It’ll help don’t worry; i was sizing it up for 2 days with the seats in and helmet. That’s basically the highest I could make it.

> Nice are those the 305 or 335 Nittos?? Either way looks great.
They are 305’s I could go to the 335’s if I wanted; it be a stetch on those wheels. I wanted 12.5 wide in the rears but all they made was 11.5’s or 13.5’s.
The tires are the RII’s for road racing not drag. I plan to take it to beaver run eventually; but ill still take it down the strip for the hell of it.

Have wanted to do one of these for several years. But I am short on talent in a couple of the core mods. So, I looked at a couple different completed swaps to just buy. But then realized I was out of gargage space to store it. DUH! An FD swap does bring good $$.
Keep up good work. Very nice.

- Alternator bracket I had to build. I have a vette Ls2 instead of the gto and the accesories are completely different. The alternator would have hit on the hood so I had to make its on bracket and line it up on the belt drive.
- Ported Heads
- LS2 being reassembled
- Replaced the plastics bins where the roll cage with the my own floor/speakers.
- OFF TO PAINT!!! FINALLY!

That is going to look awesome when it is done. What is left to do after paint? After the engine is dropped back in are you done or do you still have suspension/electronics work to do?

The engine needs to be dropped in. I finished my fuel system and cooling setup. Most of the electronics are done, however I have not tested it yet so… who knows haha. :eek4:
Once it’s back from paint i’d say a month of solid work and i’ll be atleast driving/testing it out. Keep in mind i was planning on driving this thing in june though.

Sorry guys, i’m in the process of moving everything I own across the city. I’ll have some updates after christmas.
I’m not in too big of a hurry at the moment since i’m obviously not going to be able to drive it for another 5 or so months due to winter.

Alright guys, here’s some pics of it painted.
The pictures came out absolutely **horrible** , there is like no lighting my garage. It looks 10x better in person. 🆒
You can see the molded flares turned out great after tons of sanding and shaping, can’t really even tell they are not stock unless you know what it previously looked like.
