Verdad Gallardo ill try just for you lol. if i make it ill have less then a month of testing and tuning. maybe ill be able to find a track rental figure it out and have it runnin some good enough times to take the trip. but the money might not be there. at 19 spendin 12k is a huge deal lol but i kinda started this build in hopes of makin it to the shootout
Whoa that tublular k looks light. I have the UMI one, and it is a bit different. Are you street driving this?
Also can you give more details on the coil brackets? I have some LS2 coils that im using with LTCC and im always looking for good ideas.

yes it will be street driven and i actuall didnt make the coil brackets. i bought them off of YSILT1 and he did an awesome job with the brackets. ill try and get better pictures of the brackets and put them up but if u ask him he could help more then me. and the shipping weight of the kmember was 22lbs so im sure its lik 18-20lbs i bought it from taubrunit
NOT!!!
whoa...i got excited there for a second...haha.
i didn't realize you were this close to getting it done...thats awesome. i might have to make a trip to the ltx shootout and check out this car!

yea i just started talkin to the old man about it again he said we'll see i really want to go now lol. hey question for you guys. the rear i got came with 2 sets of gears. 4.30s and 3.70s recently ive noticed all the 6 speed guys run atleast 4.10s are the 3.70s not enough? i dont want to be bogging off the line. but i think the 4.30s will run out on the top end with the 27" hoosiers i hav
You will run out quick with 4.30's, I'm only going 10.90's and I'm out of gear with them..with 28" tall tires. Granted I'm an automatic but when my brother had a six speed in his with 28" tall tires, he was out of gear at 125mph. I would go 3.70's and save the hassle of swapping down the road.
