WOW "Survivor 69/Z28"
i just clicked on your links in your signature,
Your LS5 Chevelle is also triple black like mine, Nice car!!!
Your Z-28 is a beauty too.

Darcy thanks for your post about the specs on your L78 Nova.

Today i did talk to my Motor Rebuilder and discussed what was said here. We are making some changes [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
We will be gunning for more compression at a tad under 11:1 we will be shopping to get pistons that will deliver about 10.5 to 10.9 compression at .30 over for the bore.
So far i will be going with the Lunati #20202 Solid cam stick (i had this cam running my other LS6 motor and it was Awesome).
The Lifters i will use is the Howards 91118 EDM Solid Lifters.
I will give more details as i go along but that is it for now as i have a lot more parts to pick and choose. My rebuilder also assured me that when he is done with the motor it will easily pull about 500 to 550 HP [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] To me that is more than enough for the street.

Today i routed my TCS vacum lines and i had to make the top pipe from scratch as it was missing for some reason.
I had plenty of pipe and hoses kicking around so i made it myself.
I think it came out rather well.
Below are photos just incase someone else has to do this for there car. It sure is a lot of small parts to hook up.
Also included photos of the other cool stuff that hooks up to the fuel lines etc...
I pre fitted everything today to make sure its all good.

Ran out of room for the photo of the NOS fuel pump.
Here it is along with other small stuff.
Does anyone know what the number is on the engine lift?
A few of my numbers are to pitted to read properly.
