    Wow what a project!!! That was a great buy on the intake I think, I have an 01' S10 which I bought an LT1 to drop in. I can't afford to do another LS swap......

    found a good deal on a new oil pan kit. comes from a hummer and gives enough clearance to where i dont need to cut my crossmember. PN# 19212593. comes with the pan, dipstick/dipstick tube, windage tray, pick up tube, gaskets and bolts. 132 shipped.

    also trying to work a deal on a used MSD 6012 ignition and air cleaner. hopefully we can come to an agreement. this long term project is happening a little faster than i planned lol.

    as for the transmission, i think phantom talked me into a full manual valve body 80e.

    There's a guy on 67-72chevytrucks.com that just did a carb to EFI conversion on an LY6 engine. He still has alot of stuff for sale if you want me to fing the sale thread for you.

    He also has a built 200-4R trans that was behind it for sale as well.

    txoldskool? if so that's who i am trying to get the MSD and cleaner from. he left town so i guess he will contact me when he gets back in town. communicating through pm is a PITA sometimes lol. i'm in no hurry anyways and the market for the msd 6012 ignitions is just about non existant so im not worried about someone slipping in before i can buy

    picked up a MSD 6012 ignition controller with map sensor and an air cleaner today. $280 shipped.





    not my motor, but the air cleaner.





    i traded my ruger LCP for a set of new hedman ls1 swap fox body midlength headers that my dad had laying around. i doubt they will fit the s10 but i'm sure i can sell them for a good profit and put that money towards my headers. i only had $300 into my 380 lcp so i was totally willing to trade my $300 gun for $600 headers the cam, carb and intake should be rolling in today

    little update. i picked up a FLT LVL 7 60e. it needs clutches, but all of the good parts are inside. ran into something new when installing the cam. ripped the timing chan cover off and there was only 1 large bolt holding the cam gear. WTF??? aparently this is something they did on 07+ cts-v and vettes. gotta get a 3 bolt cam gear and a different tensioner now.
    got a little work done. cam in in, and i got all of the covers painted.

    prep

    prime

    painted

    Check the color of the crank sensor, if it's not black you have a gen4 52x reluctor

    the previous owner pulled the motor from a 07 ctsv and kept the crank sensor. anyone know what reluctor came in the 07 ctsv?
