mostly my new stuff, lcas, sfcs, ls6 mani, 88mm pp tb, pistons, crank, dipstick, gaskets, poly engine mounts, ls6 high volume ported oil pump, etc...

block is off at a shop all week getting bored and honed, once i get it back the assembly begins :)

[foff667]

I didnt think you could bore an LS1 block since they are sleeved?

[NJSPEEDER]

line boring and then honing is a good way to clean up the bore surface and make sure it is 100% tru and square. not really a tradition 'cut' type bore taking a bunch of material out, more of a quick sanding to make sure the hole is perfectly round and then hone it to repolish the sleeve surface.

[GrandmasterCow]

yup any day now it'll be done. cant wait lol

UPDATE:

New motor is fully assembled and in the car! Right after i get done posting this i go back to hooking up all the wires and accessories, tomorrow transmission goes back in and engine filled with fluids and we'll see what happens :)

Typical! Never quite works out like it does on all of the Musclecar shows on TV where they do an engine build and swap in half an hour.

That's a ton of work you've done there. Nice job! I love seeing build threads. Good luck getting her goin'!

[GrandmasterCow]

haha thanks i went out today, yes in th rain and got a new starter and put it in when it stopped raining and she cranked right over. i've still got to get the tranny in i'll prob to that later tonight or tomorrow. i hoped to have the car ready by this weekend to goto WW but insurance wont be on till monday and the starter issue so gives me lil more time.

[GrandmasterCow]
