Nice car there! i was going to do the same thing but the cost got to much in the end to put an ls1 in. cant wait to see this finished and maybe a 1/4.

Just out of interest, did you have any problems with any of the CRS conversion parts?

I assume you used the CRS engine mounts... What else? Did you use the CRS headers as well?

And lastly, which auto are you using? The 4 speed out the VP or a 4L60e from the VU? I can't see a throttle wire there so im assuming you used the 4L60e?
