My Build Thread LS1/FD Its Fast!

I’ll be N/A for all of June, but your welcome to spray me and put busses on me haha

Sweet man, nice tires too!

wheels should look super dope

We shall see. I am going to try to stuff a 265 up front still. This might not end well. lol

Definitely want to see final pics. Black FDs may be the sexiest modern cars in existance.

this.

Once I get the wheels back from powder I will get some. Car is also getting a dope rear diffuser and sidesteps in the next few weeks. this car might not end up the fastest but I’ll be damned if it doesn’t look hot as fawk.

Nice progress…:tup:

I fixed Sobo’s cluster (Thread coming soon). If you want to do the White Guages it is actually easier than I thought. The PO, even before you, just sanded down the OEM filter. We could just do the same. But, I have to remove the needles so we would have to do some tweaking or marking before hand. Maybe a winter project…?

So there was much debate about how much this thing was going to weigh. Well it came in at 2780lbs on a FULL TANK!!! literally I filled it up then drove onto the scale. This is street trim on 18x9.5 wheels lol.

I might go to the track tonight for some street trim untuned numbers. Not looking for anything good just want to get out and have fun. Then I will get my slicks and skinnies on in a few weeks and see what a 400+hp NA 2600ishlbs car will do. :slight_smile:

nice job not coming to the fbod meet. wanted to see this :frowning:

Sorry bud I didn’t have it ready. It still isn’t actually.

SIDENOTE!!!

Man I got this thing back from choko(he did some touch up paint that i effed while working on it) and it could not look any better.

I am going to work on some of the gaps but the paint is the nicest smoothest black paint EVER. I am so fucking stoked on how the car looks right now.

Also I have the 18x9.5" on and they are flush and dope. Aside from a few kinks I am super happy with this project.

Thanks again for all of you that have helped. No fucking way could I have done this alone. Pat is currently finishing some things for me as he is THE MAN and I have given up on some wiring lol.

You better end this thread with a heater pic.

(Preferably at a crowd of people for dramatic affect)

Already put the sticky tires on. no heaters lol

When can i come see this beast?

Its right near your house at pats shop right now. Stop up he is there.

heaters!

Car looks good. for what it was to what it is now, came along way. not a $10k show job, but it indeed looks good and sure will be raced and abused like it should be. :smiley:

so sexy!
and i love your vette too

Love that black and white contrast between those two cars.

I have my other wheels on and the car looks WAY better. Just haven’t taken any pics.
