Also as far as updates go- I've been working nights and broke my phone. But I got a new one and when I get off work tonight I will take and post some pics then..
I am basically stressing on the transaxle, and waiting for my machine shop for my heads to be finished

Sheet metal work, plates are graded at 2%... notice the graduated torpedo level.

some parts

Installed my relocated steering rack today.. homemade cuz im ballin on a budget.


passenger side all body work done!!!

driverside

whatever... another pic, and yes the geometry for steering rod is correct, just dont have.6t tube to use as a sleve and dont think butt welding is sufficient


at full lock, +42 off set with 20 mil spacers... clears, hopefully the rpf1's will too



3 shots of my intake manifold, fuel rails and injectors are mounted, but the russle blue and red stainless hoses look terrible IMO, so i ordered some parts frome aeromotiv in black and red. one pic is to sho the difference in throttle bodies and height and the last is just for an aesthic overall view comparison.

Ok, so I have officially abandoned the corvette trams axle plan. Honestly I had many doubts about cutting the uni-body and after some careful positioning I realized that I would need to remove too much material. So basically I'm gonna use a standard t56 from a camaro/trams am. However

ok so i am literally sitting at work waiting for tile demo, and i found this video.... this guys build is as close to mine as ive seen, but he has a bit less valvetrain work done and stock heads, his cam also has a smaller LSA and duration, but only a little bit.
