Not bad!! I think I might get one. Where did you order it from. I don't have AC.

Panhandle performance, talk to Mark. They had the best deal. I bought mine a year ago.

Under construction shots from last October/November...Looks much better now but no new pics .

heres one from when I re-built it in the spring 2000

Here's mine.........

heres mine a little dirty and a little old but hey:lala:

I know you said you only wanted V-8s, but how about a bold, colorful, clean, 2.8L. You have to have some variety. It might be slow, but 2.8Ls have a neat look. I wish I havd some shots of it now. The engine compartment is black and the accesories are candy apple red. Still have the red looms and I will soon have red coolflex hoses.

Adding more chrome this winter.

another to add to your list, '88 iroc-z, 5.7 liter, w/ ATI D1sc and 3-core intercooler



new pics coming in a couple of weeks (when car returns from bodyshop with new cowl hood and custom built air filter box)

later
larry

I'm in Houston too!

Your TT engine looks sweet. I think you were selling them? right?

Yea, unfortunately. If nobody buys, it's no big deal. Just means I'll have to finish it. Damn the bad luck . There's so many other things that I would like to do too. And money has been tight for a while, plus all my car buddies are on the other side of houston so it's just not as fun anymore. Once I sell the turbos I'll finish the car keeping the motor and nitrous, putting it in the 10's and then sell it as well. I officially put the turbos for sell this morning in the temp class. section...........sounds stupid but I almost started crying..........I've been building this car for 4 years......and it's almost like admitting failure and never seeing what 9.50's feel like. But like I said, it won't break my heart if nobody buys. Where abouts in houston are you?

here is my filthy crumb.

you asked for it.

:lala:

.

Ok so this isn't technically *MY* engine. It's a picture of a short block from Nu-tek. They're in the process of building my engine:

396 forged stroker (shortblock) including: Cola crank, Eagle H-beam rods, SRP pistons, splayed 4 bolt conversion, Callies billet splayed caps

This is the motor that was just dropped in the chevelle.

Heres my beast

"91RamAir Formula" What type of intake it that? is it custom?

Here's a pic of mine:

or this one:

Here's my TBI

Heres mine:

Now thats the <h1>$h!T</h1>

Brad, in that picture, those aren't Eagle H-beam rods!!!
Those are an I-beam design and either you ment to say Eagle "SIR" rods or some other similar I-beam rod.
Engines are looking REAL good, need some more pictures of LS1 engines and big blocks installed.
I'd post a picture but it isn't worth the effort. It's just a simple 14x3 chrome open element with an edelbrock 3 point carb STB and VERY dirty.

edit: The more I look at the picture the less those look like the SIR rods because those are thicker, hmmm...hope you reply to this

Here's mine:



Now got a new alternator and new fluid tanks though!


Ken

I just grabbed a picture off of their site and threw it up on here. At the time of posting, they hadn't even started on my engine due to needing to get a block shipped to them (they only had LT1 blocks in stock). They may have the block by now, but it'll be a long time before I have any pictures of my shortblock.

My engine bay is looking more complete now!

ill get mine in here

chevyken, what year is your car? I noticed you have a v belt setup. ever think of converting to serpentine?

cobrakiller,
My car is an '86 - and yeah, I've got to admit the thought has crossed my mind. It definitely makes things a bit cleaner + it is hell to replace all those v-belts, and especially the powersteering.
How much is involved to do the swap??


Ken

Hey, do my pics work for everyone???
I am currently having a few probs with my web server...

Help me out, would ya?!

chevyken....you could consider my idea i am planning on,,,,march pullies makes a billet aluminum set up to replace ALL the belts with serpentine....very nice looking....check out jegs or summit...its $475

Really?? So other than the pullies you'd just need the brackets, and then re-route the wires and A/C hoses?
Anything else that would be needed?

Thanks for the heads up!

Ken

Chevyken. if you are considering the swap in the summer. i will have an almost complete set for sale for about $200. both brackets. power steering pump, A/C compressor, smog if you want it, you will just need an altenator. for a few more bucks i might bead blast it like i am doign to mine. let me know if you are interested. ill take pics of mine when im done powdercoating them.

Most recent pictures of the LT1 intake 406 project... :lala:
No afrs yet

here

Heres mine:

Well, I messed up the file size. I will fix it later.

Okay, here they are:

Here is another:

Not real crazy about the red but that's how it was when I got it...gonna change to LT1 or SuperRam so it'll do for now....

I think the red looks kinda cool

don't know if i posted before, there's so many pics my browser's having touble keeping up even with a cable.

here's one with the new containers!

3.8L boost!!!
~Murt TTA #750
