beer break

so the kframe and the sump foul each other, and just to keep the engineer happy we decided to section the sump rather than the subframe.

one of the offending corners:

chopped:

this is with the sump hard up against the kframe, so HEAPS of clearance.

after LOTS of fking around making a piece that fit.. it fits!!!

now just gotta do the other side :s

FKN LOOOOL:

new daily driver project vp calais now with lsjuan

other corner is done. just letting it sit with water in to check for slow leaks, then itll be ready to bolt back up.

well its an LS it was either made in Mexico or Canada.

So either Hak is right or its a Canada engine and hak needs to update it with a Canadian Name
