I'm with you on that! Mine is back at ADM for tuning and a few small things but it's right down to the last minute.

Congrats on an awesome build Darth Emma

Exciting Stuff here... glad it's finally coming together...

Darth_Emma · 07-09-2012, 08:27 AM

Thanks, everyone. No one wants this car to be ready for the Fest more than I do.

SSBUSDRVR · 07-09-2012, 08:55 AM

Wish you the best in it being finished it time.

It sure is coming along great.

Wish could be at C5Fest to see all the great cars:( but going to be out of the country drinking beer in Munich and hopefully spending a day and drving the Ring if all works out. Not complaining.

Stopped by IPS today. The valley cover and crank case breather are on.

The rockers we had (LS3 - which are 1.7) are not correct for the All Pro heads. They ordered LS7 rockers (1.8) which are correct. They will arrive today and Tom will then measure for the pushrods. He will order those today.

He also ordered the shorty headers today. The stock exhaust manifolds will not fit with the All Pro heads.

Here are some pictures.

Crank case breather and valley cover.

With the intake manifold set on the engine...

Picture of the rockers. The wrong rocker (LS3) is on the left and a correct LS7 rocker is the one on the right.

And just a couple of shots of the engine with the intake unwrapped so you can have a better look at it. The fuel rails have been anodized black, but aren't in the pic. I have also asked them to polish the power steering bracket to match the intake.

I found this out the hard way with the IPS kit, after ceramic coating and porting the manifolds. A lot of the shorty headers are only 1 3/4 which will choke those heads up a bit, the cleanest set I found was ARH newer shorties with equal length primaries. After looking at cost of those vs custom 1 7/8 - 2" it seemed to make more sense to go custom. Plus depending on which shorties you get you might run into cracking from the back pressure, heat, and weight of the turbos. Any plans to brace the turbos or still gonna just let em hang? Also is the intake manifold setup for twin injection or what's the second bung?

Thanks
