This build thread is giving me a severe case of the eye boners. You sir, have it all.

Un-fucking-believable. I love everything about this car.

Tell your mom I said thank you for making such a wonderful person. My mind is splattered all over my wall.

Cheers!

It has a bunch of cyclone type baffles in it to pull the exhaust through, pretty slick design.

Whats the inside of that rear box look like? Is it like a typical muffler or did you fab up something a little different? exhaust looks really good.

Update from the dyno day to here guys! As I stated before the car made 494.8whp, that's with a BONE STOCK LS3 intake manifold, so there is still power to be made for sure. I got around to wrapping up the rear section of the exhaust, all in T304 stainless that runs into a Spintech muffler, and I added the dual 3" tips. It was a bit tricky routing it all cleanly and tucked up, but it fits like a glove. The front half was ceramic coated and I dropped the rear off today to get done. We're getting it ready for its first big show this week in Louisville KY at Water By The Bridge. On to the photos!

Thanks guys!

Made 494.8 on the dyno, pretty damn happy with it being a stock intake manifold, still has power to be made!

never really understand the need most americans have to put a v8 in everything

nonetheless what a top notch build , as Jake said : such attention to detail, it's goddamn awesome
oneday i hope to get the change to build even something half this crazy

Whelp, we're on the way to the dyno! Here goes nothing!

Iron block isn't much more weight, about 70lbs. I have the plan to ProCharge it, which may happen sooner than later
