So sweet man, looked like someone took the car offroading before they put it on the trailer. Maybe they practiced rally racing racing with it, kidding aside good luck with it, I cant wait for the day when I get one of those.

Thanks fellas and lady. The car runs, but she needs a little work done before I start driving around in her.

It's all in my Fquick. But for the folks that don't wanna click it, here ya go:

-Eagle 4.000" stroke, 4340 forged steel crankshaft
-Scat 6.125" H-Beam , 4340 forged steel rods (with ARP bolts)

Comp Cams 224/228 @.050, 581/588, 114+2 LSA

Nick Williams TB

Background story is I grenaded the engine last year so instead of replacing it, I opted to upgrade. I have to take it easy on her because, everything else is stock. I wanted to do the suspension and get a couple bolt ons to ease me by. But what good are supporting mods when the car doesn't run? It's also great to see someones face when you tell them that the block is an LS7.

Oh yeah, I went with the C6 Z06 rims because I sorta have a C6Z06 engine.
