Here's the finished product, major change in the plans half way through. Arizona TPI tried screwing me over. After they pulled the motor and then totally took it apart, they told me that they wanted me to pay them up front for the work that they were going to do. I told them to kiss my hairy ass.
Well after i called a tow truck,then pulled up my pants after getting screwed.(the $500.00 what i had to pay to get them to put my engine in a box)I had it towed over to the Engine House where they ended up finishing it up. The Engine House built me a nasty 460 motor a few years back for my boat, so i know how good these guys are, they have been doing this shit since like in the 60's.

Adding the Royal Purple oil and new K&N oil filter, i swear it ran much better after i put this oil in.

Can't wait to take it to the track. Exept its getting way to hot here in Arizona to get max performance out of it. I might have to wait til it starts cooling down in a few months.

Switching the rotors and calipers out with the drilled & slotted ones.
Of course, then i had to change the pedals to some nicer ones.

Ahh dont sell your car!! haha you will regret it. as much of PITA LT1's are... they still can be built up to beat out the modern v8's I got my hood from roger at U.S. Exotics. since then he has moved on to viper car parts. and i haven't heard from him in a while.
