Re: Post Pictures of your LSX Engine Bays!

Here's a pic I took yesterday of my engine bay with the custom ram air box that I made.

Yeah! LOL. I am going to be filling the words "Corvette" in with body filler when I finish my air cleaner box bottom. I will probably have my Waterjet guy cut a nice piece of aluminum to put on the coil covers that says Trans Am GTA or something to that effect.

Re: Post Pictures of your LSX Engine Bays!

WOW! Lets be honest, I don't even NEED A/C. No frills necessary. Just the LSX. Apparently that's to much to ask...for now. BEAUTIFUL to see these engine bays filled to the max.

Keep 'em coming please!!!

Justin, I've followed along on your first and second build-ups and it was like a great story with a bad ending (the family additions were definitely a great time in your life). So what is in the works for the T/A. I hope to do th same on my Z, it's on jacks in the garage right now. Just collecting parts and money for now.

Wow thanks man! Actually..the car is ready for spring! I have a couple things left. Clean tank, new injectors, TUNE. Since this is an engine bay thread, I guess Ill post a crappy picture of mine.

Hopefully it'll be as clean as some of the others in this thread someday!

Id cluster them behind the intake. At a passing glance, looks like a distributor poking out of the breather
