Hey Bud I just noticed you have a set of Hex Vents as well, any vibration issues at speed? Installing a set in Pumpkin this spring and I'm still leary about cutting the hood.

None at all... Measure like five times and get the long blades for the jig saw... My blade was just a tick short and rattled my teeth a few times when it didn't reach all the way through...

... and that front plate! Is that to keep all the accessory drives in plane once you hit warp speed?

That dry sump system really is sexy....

the front plate is what supports the motor rather than motor mounts... The accessories will bolt through the motor plates...

I've had no issues at over 200 mph... I'm pretty confident in them despite where they fit... And sitting at a light watching the heat waves come up through them convinces me how well they work... I did not use the trays...

Looks like you guys are making some good progress since the last time I was out there. Those Dailey dry sump pieces are a work of art! Can't wait to hear this beast running!

amazingly wrong... We determined the pump and the ATI damper are for an LS1, so we are hoping they can get us the right stuff faster than we got the last set... The pan is correct... Note the belt alignment from the damper to the idler pulley and alternator pulley...
