Where did you find that radiator cover w/ the Chevy logo?

A lot more work to do yet. But this is what I have so far.

Lil messy right after the swap a while back... Boo on cell phone cameras haha...


IROCThe5.7L- I saw your under the hood shot in the GM thread and man that is gorgeous!!

Thumbs up to the artist on that!

Now that looks good to me. How hard was it for you to do that?

Tony.

It wasn't to hard at all, about a week on the re-build and a few days to drop it in and tune it right... The biggest p.i.t.a. was trying to convert the polished TPI Unit from MAF to Speed Density, hence the black runners... haha

updated pics

So far

Stop making me drool... Please...

haha

Dude. That little thumbnail just slipped right in there. Magnacharger/LS1, saweeet....

Someday......someday...

Still have to polish everything and make the wiring neater, Billet is a pain in the @ss to keep clean.

I'm so jealous, I wish all of you the passage of smog laws..

Here is what's under mine currently... (327)




I can't wait to get that thing out though...

Older one of mine

Sloooowly getting there.

why do dyou have 2 pcv valves? do you have another vent somewhere camaronewbie?

I had some blowby when I first installed the engine - was getting nasty oily smoke out the filter vent - so I just got another PCV and installed it - now all the nasty oily smoke gets burned and keeps it from getting so dirty under the hood. It might have been a temp thing (the blowby) - I might try another vent filter and see what happens. But it was a quick easy fix at the time. Motor still runs very strong, and having 2 PCV's doesn't seem to affect anything as it's been that way for 3 years now.

Is there a good tutorial on how to do a proper wire tuck (wire management) on here?

There's several threads from folks - Since I swapped to carb, I just went through mine, cut out what I didn't need/wasn't using, and tucked the leftovers in plastic looms. Some folks just remove the entire pass side harness fully intact when swapping to carb, but I have made use of several of those wires for outside lighting and accessories like fan controllers and fog lights, so I've left that harness intact and just tucked it in the fenderwell to be accessible whenever I need a new wire from inside to outside. There were a few that I shortened and/or lengthened to get better tucked - I still have a ways to go until I'm happy - more shiny, better cleaning, and some painting.

these are when i first got it.


and a few days ago i started to clean up all the wire and hvac that does not need to be there

leaves and all

Where did you get the 90* elbow for your radiator hose? I have this hose but have to route it weird due to it not being able to bend close to itself. A 90* elbow would help a lot. I have mine making a u turn next to the alternator to get it to go straight towards the inlet of the radiator.

I thought it came with the hose kit, it might of been an accessory for the hose, got it so long ago I can't really remember but it was just through Pep Boys off the shelf.

since i saw no pretty v6 motors tada

Heres mine. I'm getting fabricated valve covers within the next few weeks though.



The vacuum canister is no longer there.

Here is some pictures of my car, Ive got a lot of cleaning up to do on it, Everything is just sitten on there because Ive got an old intake bolt still stuck in the head (water jacket area of the manifold).

I HATE YOU.... LOL jp, Please post pics of what you do with that motor... i was thinking of doing a big block, considering my father has one lying around that needs to be refurbished. tell how it plays out please

This is the best underhood shot I have

how are you guys loading your pics? looks like i'm the only one not doing that.

Mostly Photobucket.com, or imageshack.com

Upload you pictures you want to post on a website, and after they are uploaded, copy and paste the link in the message forum that says .IMG

They picture should appear in the preview if it was done correctly,

Hope this helps
