Ok so here is another update.

I decided to go into work today to get some stuff done.

First I cleaned the T56.
Turned out pretty sweet.



Then I test fit the ls1 turbo kit finished manifold, and wastegate setup on the s14







Ok everything fits perfectly on the fc and the s14. I will be making the rest of the downpipe shortly.

At that point I decided to get back to work on the ls1.

It was time to pull the oil pan and install the -10 AN fitting for the turbo oil dump line.

first thing was to remove the pan.





Then I threw it in the parts washer, it will wash overnight.

Ok now for some actual fabrication.

Decided to build the Brake caliper brackets for the rx-7 viper brake kit.

I started by making a prototype out of some thin, easy to work with, steel.



Then I grabbed some 3/8" aluminum plate and sketched out the brackets.
Then bolted it down on the mill



then i went to work.





Drilled the holes.



Aww finished. What a good feeling.



Bolted it on.



Put on the new machined rotor.



Caliper.



Clears cobra wheels. If it clears these then it will clear most 17" wheels.



Clears the rotas with a few inches to spare.



Dont ask me how I made this picture. It just turned out this way. I guess the wheel was invisible for a split second.



Looks soo cool



Nice.






What a fun and tiring day.

What do you guys think? Want some for the S chassis?
