Its been a long time since I've posted, so here's the most recent update. I've got a 350 in the garage instead of the lt1 swap that I had been working on. Its getting a Summit intake, with their billet distributor, its got a General Kinetics cam, that looks fairly new, and I'm debating on getting some domed pistons.
Holes are cut for a t-5 swap. need to find a shifter for that. and I'm pulling the 4th gen axle back out to swap all the parts onto a third gen axle because I didn't like the spacing.

 

were you at in michigan? car looks cool for the most part.

 

I live in Milan, so I'm a little south of Ann Arbor. She looks a little sad right now. I've got the hood and the back of the car in primer, and plan to start working my way forward after I get it running.


before primer. I filled in the holes in the hood. got it for 115 with black plastics so I couldnt complain. just filled them in.


going under the hood


believe it or not the engine was running when I bought the car it came out of. Idled smooth to. NOS + Morons = Blown Pistons


Home made lever for the shifter. didnt come with the stock one when I bought it

 

finished the swap, decided I didnt like it after one summer, and put the original back in



and that just came in the mail. $215 sounds like a good price to me

 

Im glad you put the stock dash back in, 4th gen dash swaps are dumb. Love the car wish my iroc was yellow. you ever run it at Milan?

 

cool. keep it going and pictures coming!

 

I like the older dash too.

 

I havent run it at Milan yet. I ran my Acura Integra there once. pulled mid 15s before I played with it, but it was time to go back to rear drive v8s. more satisfying. Unfortunatly I'm kind of at a slow because I'm helping my brother with his 83 z28. he just got it and it needs a little bit of tlc. I'm trying to get him to sign up and post some pics

 

Well, just ordered a set of Moser 28 spline shafts to go with my lt1 dif. next step is yanking off the brackets for the discs if I can get the pinnion to come out

 

Looks good!

I actually like the yellow/flat black hood color combo when the paint is fresh.

After my experiences trying to make a 4th gen dash function and look correctly, i shudder every time i see someone getting into a 4th gen dash conversion. Long story short, ive got a thirdgen dash back in my car again.
