Thanks man. The ducting and rear panel are made out of an Anheuser Busch sign that I acquired. haha I use pieces of that thing everywhere.

The endlinks seem to be working well. I don't know if any noticeable gain came from them but it cant hurt.

I am trying real hard to come up with something and all I have is gas mileage. The ls1 does weigh a bit more but I think that it is more then made up for.

I try to beat on it every chance I get. I could not imagine putting all this effort into and car and not using it for what it was built for.


In fact here are some pics from last weekend at Roebling Road.

Very Nice. Are you actually racing up there. I just do hpde's at the moment but I am dying to do some actual racing. I am in the process of building a spec miata on the cheap so I can get out there and run wheel-to-wheel.

I had a one piece al drive shaft for my old ka setup. When I did the ls1 swap I simply bought a t56 yolk on ebay and stuck it on the al shaft. It is a little shorter then it should be (maybe 1/2in) but it works just fine.

My big brother is a diehard Domestic & Euro enthusiast with a penchant for big displacement Detroit engines as well. Even he would love this. Grip racing, not drifting for him. OEM+ look ftw

Thats not bad at all, So does your rear holds the power the ls1's putting out?

I still have it. I just drive it and enjoy it now. I have not changed or repaired anything in the last year. It takes a beating every time I drive it and just keeps on going. There are still a number of things that I would like to do to the car but my focus has moved to my other project, a spec miata. I just got my Scca racing licensee in it a few weeks ago.
