I made my own mounts based on mightyals cad design, much better fit, I however am using the cxracing ls swap headers

the exhaust manifolds are CX racing ls1 swap headers for the mk3, i would rate them 6/10 but it definitly gets me over a large hurdle of piecing the exhaust components together. lol about the weather for 300 days a year its high of 65 and low of 58

check out my build under my user name, its still in progress and i have not updated since my wedding in february, however i will be finishing the project in the cominG months

just some minor updates, I ripped out the stock HVAC unit and installed a Summit Heater core only for defroster, also used bulkhead fittings where the AC lines went. Finished off most of the topside plumbing. Will need to start working on bottom side plumbing by running new fuel lines, filters...

thats what i did for my harness, any gm vehicle from 97 up is a good choice, i used lsxtune.com for all of the pins and wiring to essentially make new connectors. there are some good cam lock delphi connectors that i may use.

next to work on will the coolant surge tank, it will go where the NA power steering reservoir used to sit on the passenger side. I will probably start fabbing that up this week some time. I plan on adding ports so that I can pull the coolant lines in to an ever so slight vacuum and suck up the...

some work from the weekend aluminum radiator shroud and i managed to squeeze in a 2 speed taurus radiator. I will use some foam gasketing to seal it later. Also I built my 4" intake under the head light. I will eventually build a an airbox to house the filter element. I am using a LS3...
