No reason at all? Such a let down... Hope at least the project is still alive.

For a motor that is cheaper that is easier to make more porter and parts are plentiful.

Made a lower radiator support bar this weekend and moved the radiator up front to get ready for my A2W intercooler.



So much room!



Bolted the motor plate in and started mocking up the steering rack.



Also decided to go with a Holley Hi-ram lower runners so I have the rendering for the sheet metal plenum just about finished.

Wow, great progress! Going to be scary fast.

On a separate note, wondering if you'd ever consider fabbing something like this up for sale?

Sorry the link won't post. It's a top mount intercooler. If you google scalbert intercooler, the info is there. It won't let me paste the link.

doesn't look like a newer LS block, 350 maybe? keep it up & if you need cad work done I'd be more than glad to run it & can do flow simulation for it.

It's an LS (or some variation of that design); the 350 exhaust ports aren't evenly spaced like they are with an LS motor.

This car is going to be badass

John Doe walks into the shop, and says:

"Why are your door bars bent inwards?"

Replied:

"Because full interior street car, that's why"
