Congrats but this is the Speed Six Engine forum, maybe better to post in the MM forum.

^Agree!
Seems as though you should look for a fair bit more HP if you go all the way to LS7.

Best,

Will need a trye supplier on speed dial.

400bhp of LS Power was pretty much enough to Spank anything I ever came across (including most bike smile).

Presume a Tuscan as they moved from that forum or the chocolate SP6 one.

265 R888s on the back are holding up quite well so far...obviously not trying hard enough!

Clearly not - drive it like you stole it.

I made do with 245 SP9000's on the back, enough grip for me (but then having it naled to the floor is No Fun).

Get some vids up.

Well i can report the car is running and things look and sound great . Warren has install electic power steering in and removed the original mech pump he's had a few idling problems but this is just tech issues. It looks right at home in there and were looking forward to the middle of January.
