Made a little progress today. I put the baby wheels and tires on (which will be for sale very soon lol), and lowered the car off the stands for the first time since I got it home. Rolled her outside for some fresh air...




I need to take some up-close photos of the coil-overs...they really open up some tire room.

Also, I didnt have the truck today to grab my shortblock, however I did grab my cylinder heads...

L92 (I have the complete L92 motor), brand new LS6 valvesprings, resurfaced, ported exhaust side....nothing crazy, but they will do the trick!

Funny enough, I picked it up from the previous owner. The guy I purchased the car from was actually the "middle man," not the original owner.

The actual real owner tracked me down on ls1tech and offered it too me. I believe it is discontinued.

Thanks. The wheels are 16x8 replica zr1s. I believe they are discontinued and you only can get the 17s now.

Tires arent all that great, however they do have a little bit of life.

I was thinking 300 for the set? Missing one center cap, but no curb rash, wheels are straight and nice.

Small Update

Picked up the motor from RADs, and it is finally home where it belongs. Now I need to start cleaning up the block and get it base/cleared:



Picked up a few more parts. I grabbed a set of Wolfe chromoly lowers, and an Aeromotive A1000:




Also installed the primed hvac delete I built. Its all sealed up and ready for paint!


_______________________________________________

I plan on trying to get a LOT done next week...so if the weather is nice and anyone wants to stop by to lend a hand, it would be greatly appriciated!
