Centerforce dual friction



Hurst Billet Plus with the old school chrome stick/white ball.


All hooked together, ready to go in! (I've waited forever for this!)


'Nuff said.... got them this morning. I think I'm the 1st in the country so far!


Nice, aren't they? The qualilty of these is absolutely amazing! VERY nice!!


Pretty cool little emblem on them too... I can't thank Bruce Hawkins enough.... especially at the rough time they're having right now dealing with a loss to their "family"


Ready to go!


Just a close up.


True long tubes... I can't wait to get my electric cutouts rigged up on the end of these!!


*Well guys, it's been a long road but I'm finally getting there. All I need is my wiring now and I'm about ready to fire it up. Due to Neil's death at Hawk's 3rd gens, I'll be doing the wiring myself or possible having Speartech do it now. I spoke with Bruce for a long time the other day at work and he is such a class act... I don't know what else to say. I'm finishing my project in honor of Neil now... he was such a great help over the phone....


That's all for now, hope to have it in the car by tonight!

 

I think someone beat you by a day or so

Plus that shifter **** looks familiar. Good thing I have a new console coming also to replace the one in the car now also.

 

looks great

i really like the headers, if they had a 3" collector i would of bought a set in a heartbeat.

anything major done to it?

 

i got my headers friday, installed them today, they fit great. Just had to dimple one of the tubes to clear the stearing shaft becuase it was rubbing but i had to do the same on my slp shortys i had on my 305. Going to try to get the y-pipe in there tomorrow, and finish up with the misc. stuff i have to do, so i can get this beast started.

Ummmm, yeah... pretty much everything but a rotating assembly. ARP rod bolts, ported LS6 oil pump, double roller timing chain, Thunder Racing cam , hardened pushrods, comp 918 springs, titanium retainers, ported/polished heads, LS6 intake, ported/polished TB and MAF, centerforce clutch, Hurst shifter, LS1 aluminum driveshaft, moser 9" with 4.11's, 315 drag radials on the rear, LS1 brakes all around, LS1 master cylinder, wilwood proportioning valve, Hurst Linelock, PST frontend kit, KYB shocks/struts, Jamex STB, and probably some other small stuff I can't think of. I've got to do my custom y-pipe with dual electric cutouts, then a stock 4th gen WS6 catback, and also finish fabbing up my custom 4" CAI. That's it for now, I gotta run. I'll post pics of it in the car here in a minute.

*Thanks for all the compliments!

 

Looks right at home


I'm going to have to re-route the brake lines behind the steering shaft or bend them some more for clearance.


Clean??


This is my custom 4" cold air kit I'm working on. These were two 90* 4" pieces off a semi where I used to work... where my dad works now. I kept them to fab up my own 4" catback but its gonna work just right for my CAI. I'll have to cut it where that black mark is, weld on a piece straight over to the MAF, then a 90* into the TB. This pipe will also go through the area where the charcoal canister used to be... placing huge K&N cone filter under the car. Plenty of cold air and free flowing as hell!


Overhead shot... I like the little bird plate I had made.

 

Custom dual exhaust T56 x-member from "Drew" on TG.O... this will work out nicely!


Another shot of it.


Better side view.


And another...


Good shot showing it off.


*All I have for now... just tell me when you guys want me to quit posting pics. Whatcha guys think? Its still a long way off from running... but its getting there. I can't wait... getting kinda nervous though.


later- Jeremy

 

if i could find a cheap ls1 t56 combo i would do it.

thats so badass!!! nice work.

 

Verry NIce. I know Al from stainless. they do top notch work.

 

They look great can't wait to get mine do you have the stock K-member!

 

Yes, stock kmember notched for the AC compressor.

 

very nice

 

Aha! I am the first in the country! LOL!

 

Yep, you beat me! haha

 

nice pics...

and thanks for that info on the crossmember a couple months back... i have one on my LS1 swap too...

 

No problem man, thanks. Help me with the wiring....

 

hey were did you get that tranny mount and motor mounts

 

Me??

Tranny mount- Energy Suspension Poly mount (modified by me to fit in this crossmember

Tranny Crossmember (dual hump dual exhaust)- From "Drew" on here... PM him for one, very nice! Helps with ground clearance alot.

Motor mounts- engine side, stock LS1's. K-member side, fbody motorsports or Hawk's 3rd gens.


*Hope this helps, later!
-Jeremy

 

I GOT A PM FROM DREW THAT SAID THIS!
SO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT THIS IS NOT THE GUY AND IF IT IS THAN HE DOESN'T ANT TO MAKE TRANNY CROSSMEMBERS ANYMORE!

 

It looks like his user name is drews so I'll try him!

 

yea.. its drews, not drew.

 

Sorry Drew... it is Drews.

 

a smaller collector can sometimes build more torque, without sacrficing HP.
i couldnt bare spending the money on those headers. bought a set of manifolds for 70 bucks, and im really happy with them.

looks like a great setup. lets see some #'s from it when you get her going.

 

yea... a smaller MERGE collector.... if you're using a standard collector, a bigger one is better...


in this case, 2.5" is used only because of ground clearance issues.

 

Yeah, I'm still tempted to have these cutoff at the exhaust shop and have some 3" ones welded on. I really don't want any big restrictions in my exhaust. 3" collectors wouldn't have hurt our ground clearance that much with these SW LT's IMHO. Oh well, they're still very nice!

 

i dont think im losing any tq from having the 3" collectors.

 

yip, but i still dont see 2.5 being that much of a restriction.

 

it would be nice to see dyno results of each setup, but there are too many variables.
camshaft and cylinder heads would play a big part on what makes power where.

 

Well, I believe that the 4th gen MAC mid length headers are only 2.5" collectors and cars run in the 10's with those. 2.5" collectors can't be hurting it too much... I'm sure 3" would help a little though, how much I don't know.
