Personally think its coming along nicely Troy considering your original was may / june and the fact you work 6 days a week and have 4 kids!!!

Going to be one mean beast ( for a GU anyway *L* ) when you have finished

Yeah it blew out in completion time because the gearbox took a month to get rebuilt. But it will be worth the wait!!!

For a GU HAHAHA

Engines all bolted in with the Ceramic coated extractors

Bit of an update - I just ordered -B&M Pro Rachet shifter, New NGK Iridium Plugs, New MSD 8.5mm Leads, New Bosch O2 sensors, Lokar dipstick, Mr gasket Extractor gaskets and new PCV hoses. I have also organised for the hose doctor to come around and sort out the high pressure power steer hose on Tuesday. I have also ordered modified hose connection for the aircon pump and some brake line heat shields from Marks 4WD Adapters. For the record - Elliot @ Marks has been fantastic. He sorted my radiator hose issue out, with out hesitation. He couldn't do enough for me. Before I would hang up on the phone, he always made sure I understood the answer thoroughly to my questions.

I have also sent the 2 wiring harnesses of to Steve @ Killa Kustom Kables on tuesday. Should have them back in a couple of weeks. All graphed together, Vats removal and a 3way switch and loom incorporated for the thermos.

Cheers

hi mate great looking job your doing there
did you fit the motor with the standard sump, just wondering if you really need to change the sump over
i have a gen 3 ls1 and im saving for all the bits needed at the moment. I have a 3" lift and was wondering if i could fit it with the standard sump with enough clearance between the diff.
cheers
