Got the plenum and of those pesky tubes, pipes, etc. done. Filled with anti-freeze and started her up. Fire right away but have to adjust the idle yet. Can't believe that is is almost ready. These pics are the engine only. The wheels are off and the rocker panels are at the painter. I'll get some other pics when everything in on. I plan on doing a write up on my experiences with this project. This project would not have happened without the help, advice, experience, sound board, etc. of Jeff Flint. He is one remarkable person. Very patient with me and my inexperience.

Enjoy the pics...

great looking engine but I think I'd have left the coolant pipes the stock piece and stay with the LT5 TB plate. But that's personal preference and it looks great either way

I couldn't help it, sorry. I thought the black cars with the metallic red engines were bad, but yours is just bitchin. How many cars with white engines are there, any idea?

i have never made reference to humping an engine
for your misinformed information
although, it does seem to have a sexy sort of
mystic to it. :D
