    Well some of my new parts are showing up

    I had Lonnie at PTC spec and build me a converter..... super excited to get an actual good converter infront of a new transmission setup to see how it works without massive slip!

    Lonnie was super nice and helpful too, very satisfied

    it was 5 days from when i called till when i received! and it has the ls1 pilot and pattern so i do not need to use any sort of adapter anymore

      So i picked up some like new complete Caddy LSA heads to try for cheap

      I had planned on sending these off to either Lingfelter or WCCH for a port job

      but the casting and finish on these is MUCH nicer compared my regular L92's..... so i may just do springs and bolt them down instead

      The LS9/LSA heads differ from the normal ls3/l92 heads in these ways

      different, better aluminum

      better "rotocast" casting method

      swirl fin in the intake port (you can see it in the left corner of the intake runner in my one pic)

      some say thicker deck
      .
      .
      .
      .
      difference from the LSA heads and the LS9 heads is that the LS9 uses larger headbolts and different valves (Ti)

            very nice and that is impressive for how clean it still looks.

                  Worked out well that i got home from nice hawaii to cold home yesterday...... but I had a present waiting so it made the transition better!

                  In the end i decided to pick up a new set of done up LSA heads from Richard at WCCH...... SS valves...... dual springs..... 350+/240+ flow #s... .. large 75cc chambers

                  Richard was great, very very helpful and always available to talk. So a +1 for him

                  and their work speaks for themselves as why i went to them

                  So i have a like new set of stock LSA's here if anyone would be interested for cheap

                  CR will be at 9.9 now instead of ~10.6 like it was on the stock chamber L92's....... got to love E85.... even with the previous high CR and no IC, no det problems

                        Well getting more done

                        I am very pleased with how the new front end is coming together with the new and improved radiator and the addition of a FMIC (hope GSR is happy 🙂

                        I have gained another 3" of room forward......... and only two bolts to remove the IC, and only two bolts to pull the radiator (holes not drilled for that yet)

                        the rad sits on a 1/2" pad of rubber

                                    Because anyone in the right mind racing in the 1/4 would install a cage in there car before adding more power.
