I haven’t even had the time to breathe at night and update the blog. We have been working every night to try and get all the things done that we need to catch up on and have the car ready within the next month. The shakedown is shooting to be at the beginning or middle of May and get to do some practice before signing up for the first pro-am event.

Well onto the list of things that we were able to purchase and lastly, which drivetrain setup we are totally settled on: LS1 Turbo!!!!!!!!!!! We acquired the engine, trans, harness, individual throttle bodies, etc in trade for labor on a customers car. We planned on sticking to naturally aspirated but we ditched the throttle bodies because we love our turbo cars and I was able to buy most all the parts I need to finish the build. Here is what I was able to pick up: ACT Twin Plate clutch kit, Comp Cams dual row adjustable timing kit, Comp Cams Hi-RPM Valvetrain kit, Melling High Volume oil pump, ARP Rod bolts, and lastly the KPR Engineering gnarly steering angle kit. Special thanks out to Victor Moore and the crew at KPR Engineering for helping us out on our project with the angle kit.

The motor was solid mounted along with the transmission. The mounts ended up being slightly lighter than stock but sturdy as hell! Here are the pics:
