[JakeJeske]

so wait what exactly is going on? new motor?

[turboZ]

Wouldnt happen to be going forged internals would we:)

[Slow Joe]

Hrmmm I have this feeling that Slow C5 might be a little quicker this year, hey?

[SLOWC5]

ill post more pictures once more parts come in. Then ill have time to mock everything up and get the car ready.

I'd like it to be faster when I'm done with it. That usually is the goal :)

JEFF

[BAD LS1]

that engine stand looks familiar haha

[6L chevelle]

you no longer have a vette, you have pieces of a vette

and i know how that feels

[Slow Joe]

This winter my car should look something similar to that... Red, and torn apart :rolf That's if I find a decent DD before then...

I have a perfect bracket made for the rear end if you need to use it. It mounts to the tranny jack. Let me know. Actually you can have it if you want.

anyways jeff, did you decide if your going to do mine or not?

[SLOWC5]

that can get done as soon as mines back together

JEFF

[Poncho]

top end looks really nice shiny and black as opposed to dull.

also the headers being black gives a neat look.

[946speedz]

cant wait to see the finished product

[MurphysLaw88GT]

Very nice

[A B4C Z]

WOW thats awsome. Should of kept the red injectors to match the car :goof

[Slow Joe]

Nice... Too bad, unlike I said earlier in this thread, my car won't be that torn apart this winter :(

[1quickgtp]

awesome, what else should I do besides the cam and heads? I already have headers, exhaust, y pipe, s/c, rear end, an clutch.

[TransAm12sec]

[SLOWC5]

JEFF

[A B4C Z]

[A B4C Z]

Must be nice to have money....well see how the vet motor holds up!

[SLOWC5]

Its' going to be a long winter

JEFF

[SLOWC5]

Finished putting the car together on friday. Thanks brent, willy, brad, kyle you were still use-less from thursday night.

Today I lost 3rd gear, looks like the short season might be over, unless i decide to rebuild it fast. At least I can get Kyle his motor now

JEFF

[Lash]

Damn that sucks. A lot of people were looking forward to seeing that car. :(

[SLOWC5]

So was I, I got to put about 20 miles on it today.... That trans did hold up well for what I put it through.

consistant 1.5xx-1.6xx 60's, 45 track passes, half on 150 shot out of the hole

dont give up,theres plenty of time for racing still.......get that thing back together.

[purpl72olds]

I seen that crate in the back of a colorado down at the dyno challenge. I was convinced that my need for a motor would propel my body to lift it into my truck, lol. Very tempting, good thing im not a criminal, haha. OH and that should be an awesome project when done, good luck!

[SLOWC5]

I'm looking into some options that aren't as expensive.. Might still make a track pass this year.. I'll know by friday

[6L chevelle]

it was just out, we could have done it then. oh well.

That looks a lot like your writing on that empty box :D

[BAD LS1]

Yeah i think we are all gonna have a gangbang on that 4L60E and rebuild it our selves. I dont think tranny fluid is supposed to smell like coffee!?!?

[UnderPSI]

Regular or Decaf ???

[BAD LS1]

Regular or Decaf ???

It was the high octane shit i believe, it was brownish/purple:wow

[SLOWC5]

The pan is getting dropped tonight and we'll start the dis-assembly again. I'm getting good at dropping that rear subframe, not as good as forest with his 30 minute C5 clutch changes. :rolf

JEFF

[UnderPSI]

I have a perfect thingy made for the rear end if you want it otherwise I am going to throw it away. It bolts to the top of a trans jack. 30min clutch change?????? You coming to the bonfire, you can grab it there.

[SLOWC5]

I'll take the adapter, Brad. I might stop out at the fire to pick it up.

JEFF

[Crawlin]

man that sucks! hopefully you can put that thing together for just a little bit of fun on the 21st

[SLOWC5]

Well as you can see the drum is a little rough, the 3-4 steels are burnt and the 3-4 clutches have a cone curve to them. No where near flat like they should be.

The trans is back together and going into the car tuesday.
I cant count myself out yet:thumbsup
