Here is a quick slideshow to catch you guys and gals up on the LS 410ci 101mm Turbo buildup on my 92'. Try to ignore the advertisement between frames. I will be posting up more pics on this thread as I get closer to the finish. For more details click on my FQuick page below!

There are tons of things I have left to do, and I will try to post them up as I have time during the build! Thanks! Enjoy!!!

 

Well I got the K-Member in today and also got the steering linkage connected. Cutting that bar stock to fit to the knuckles was a PITA! I am going to try and get the A-Arms and the coilovers on sometime this weekend and then trial fit the LS2 and see if there are any issues. Is there a sponsor of this site that happens to sell the clamshell 4th gen mounts in poly? I have searched a bit but didn't come up with anything. Here are some pics of the K-Member on the car.

 

WOW!

Thats a hella build you have going on there. Very impressive I cant wait to see it completed. Congrats

 

damn its looking very nice...subscribe!


cant wait to see it done

 

It is looking very nice and clean. Can't wait to see the finished product.

 

Thanks guys on the comments! I really appreciate it. I'll definitely keep you posted as the build progresses. If it looks half as good as ls1transam84 I'll be extremely happy.

 

the ls1 stuff must be droping in price, there seems to be alot of ls1 swaps out there. Nice work I amd gealous

 

Its hard to argue against on any front. Whether it be dollars, drive ability, or max performance, LS1's are pretty tough to beat dollar for dollar

 

Lookin' good! It's all worth it when it's done

 

where did you get your manual brake kit?
i recognize it. isnt it a 4thgen spec model?
looks like you are doing the build up the right way.
NICE!

 

I'll send you a PM, I'm not sure if they are a site sponsor or not. Don't want to **** the mods off. I'm pretty new to this site so I am not sure how it works here, I guess I need to read the site rules. PM sent!
It is made to fit 82-02 with a few modifications. Pretty simple really.
Thanks for the compliments.

 

You can post the companys name here. You just cannot, not be a sponsor and try to sell your stuff here on a commercial level.

 

Well then I got it here>>> http://www.burkhartchassis.com/fbodycomponets.html <<< It was $341 shipped. Bolts right in and all you have to do is drill one hole an inch above the factory brake attachment point. Then adjust the rod end to give you proper brake engagement.

 

Looks good man i want to put a roll cage in mine soon also

 

Man, Im jealous! Question for ya, where did you get that rack and pinion? It looks outstanding!

 

I got it fron a company called Unisteer. >>> http://www.unisteer.com/mm5/merchant.mvc <<< I then sent it to AJE for them to mount on the K-Member. It's actually a (don't hate me for this) 1979-1993 Mustang manual rack. It has 2 1/4 turns lock to lock and has the right width so it seemed to be the best way to go. Search for it under Ford Mustang and you will see the exact kit they shipped me. AJE then added a few bits of there own and shipped it and the K-member to me.

 

Awesome! Because I did see that you got the rack and pinion from Unisteer from your slide show. But I looked at there website and didnt find any rack and pinions for the 3rd Gens. So I just thought I would ask. Was it expensive to have it modded to fit? Thanx for the info. by the way.

 

Nothing was modded on the rack. The width was dead on for what we need for a third gen so that you have plenty of adjustment in the steering. The K member was made to bolt in a 3rd gen Camaro, utilizing the 79' to 93' Mustang manual rack, 4th gen Camaro style engine mounts, and a 3rd gen style bump steer kit to bolt to the spindle. Was it expensive though, Yes.

 

Well, it looks to have been put together superbly! How difficult was it to remove everything from the engine bay including the tranny?

 

Thanks, It was easy. I pulled the engine and tranny together by myself in a couple of hours. Just unplug, unbolt, and pull.

 

back from the dead

Kingsize - I can't find much info on that rack on unisteer's site. What is the total travel length, is it the typical mustang 5"??

I am looking at this rack - it's 3 turns lock to lock which kinda stinks, but it has 6.25" of throw.

http://www.flamingriver.com/index.cf...rod/prd239.htm

Our cars stock have 6" total pitman arm travel I believe.

so hopefully one could use this arm without having to get different spindles with shorter arms to keep the turning radius. I just wish it was a 2.5 turn lock to lock.

Total length on that flaming river rack is 41" as well. does that seem like an ok width?

Thanks!
