I will have more pics tonight.

I decided to move forward with the solid motor mounts... I will report back as much detail on my impressions as I can seeing as this is a street truck first.

That cam you've selected is going to cause a LOT more ruckus than the solid motor mounts.

That's the plan. I spec'd it as a 'max effort' cam with my engine size and this specific blower in mind for a heavy truck. Should be gnarly...

Alright... ive been promising updates and I know they're slow. I should have more pictures soon. I did get some more goodies last night though!


Here is a picture comparing my injector spacers to the phenolic spacer... I hope they work fine when coupled with the gasket.

Where did you get the injector spacers? I am making a 1/2" spacer for the KB while its apart and I am thinking a 1/2" injector spacer will be easier than fabing new fuel rail mounts and changing some plumbing to the regulator.

I knew they did but didn't see exactly what I need on their website for spacers only. I just spoke with Jon and he hooked me up with what I need (12mm LS2 to LS1 adapters with 14mm orings).

Spent a little time with it last night and played with the Phenolic spacer... didnt go quite as well as planned and due to a couple complications I think I will hold off on that piece until this winter. Disappointing but I don't feel like messing with it anymore.

Anyway... here are a couple quick shots of the engine and lower manifold sitting on it.
