    Back in the game: 1990 GTE Targa -> Sloppy Cruiser / Racecar.

    Yess'r. Last MS installs I did or assisted with were all hybridized DB37 to OE GM harnesses, obviously this isn't nearly so involved, but either way I'm looking forward to that portion of the process. (I find soldering to be of a sort of Zen for myself. lol.) Awesome site, pricing looks a bit...

    Got the last car buttoned up and finally towed the Supra home. Nothing much else has been really going on however, work stuff has kicked up and I've got a family member in the Hospital unfortunately. Up side of things, a local buddy of mine is looking to change up the setup on his Turbo...

    Nope. As I mentioned before, I was tiring of getting burnt on deals for Tremecs. And realistically, the 80E is the better choice both fiscally as well as longevity at my planned power levels. The trade-off will be the extra work required to fit it, but it's nothing my drilling hammer can't...

    :naughty: I'm almost done wrapping up another engine swap and then she finally gets her garage space.

    SBC/LS1 with R154, anyone done it?

    You're leaps ahead of me still then- Garage space ended up consumed by three other projects and a different engine swap... Should have her in and ready to get to work within the month. Been collecting parts in the meantime at least, including a 4l80E, and began my electronics last week...

    SBC/LS1 with R154, anyone done it?

    Updates, buddy? I missed out on a (THIRD!) Tremec locally this weekend. Looking like I may be forced to go auto if I want to get the ball rolling already...

    SBC/LS1 with R154, anyone done it?

    That's right, you're trying out the CXracing stuff, correct? I may have to revise my plans as well. Disappointing, I would have liked the option of the Aisen if the Tremec continues to be so illusive. (Though a buddy from a local shop is starting to try and push me toward the 80E.)

    SBC/LS1 with R154, anyone done it?

    Grifter, where have you gotten with this? I'm now leaning towards the R154 for longevity and availability reasons over the Tremec, but the lack of decent clutch options off the shelf, has me concerned. What few kits I have seen for the LSx-> Aisen don't have nearly the holding capacity that I...

    Wait, what? Where did you get LS2 from? lol. I know what 241's are, hence why I know it's a mutt LS6 (Combo of block casting numbers and heads). Last two years of the F-body, they utilized LS6 shortblocks with LS1 heads and extras to save on logistics. The guy I bought it from had been told it...

    LSx swap aftermarket...? WHAT?! :naughty: So, great news everybody! My "L33" is actually an '02 f-body LS6 mutt engine! SCORE!

    L33. Aluminum 5.3 with a slightly more aggressive cam than it's iron brethren, as well as bitchin head castings and the flat-top slugs. Not antique, though it did come in pickups. :biglaugh: Edit: Here's a better written explanation. lol. L33 The Vortec 5300 L33 (VIN code "B") is an...

    And the neon is almost ready for sale, so expect an influx in budget and attention in the near future... ;)

    Happy to see this much interest and support already. Frankly, I was prepared to get heckled. Hahahaha.

    It's been years since I've dabbled in the MKIII world, since the abrupt end of my 1988 1UZ swap plans back in '09, but now I'm back, after finally finding my Moby Dick- A Cheap but solid White Package. Car is straight as an arrow. Only cancer is...
