When I got the exhaust installed on my truck I realized I had a issue. I got a lifter that had a manufacturing flaw. It didn't have a oil pressure hole drilled in it. Disregard what I said in my first post about running LS7 lifters because I was gonna run those but later changed my mind to run the (unnamed)Company's I currently am. These are supposed to be the best Hydraulic roller lifter out right now. It must have slipped by their quality control. Oh well, I guess....
(On a side note the supplier treated me very well and supplied all needed parts)



It's been all back together for several days now but I've been down and out with the flu.

I hope to get the Racetronix fuel pump and hotwire kit installed tomorrow and I'll be all set for the Dyno Monday. I also bought a set of new 8.1 marine injectors just in case.

 

any updates on this build?

 

I still own it and Ive put about 10,000 miles on it so far. It's super nice to drive but I haven't done any more modifications to it. Just been driving it and keeping it waxed. I've been building a 68 Camaro with all Detroit Speed suspension and a turbo LS.😎

 

Here's a couple vids. One is open headers first start and the other is after I had drove it a couple years

Wow that's a work of art! I'm looking at the same tick cam's. Daily street truck single cab and I'm building a 6.0 around 10.5:1 with 243's. I like the specs on the ls1/6 categories or even the 4.8/5.3 street heat. either:
229/235 .610"/.610" 111+2
227/235 .618"/.605" 110+3
