    Flat Plane Crank LS1

    btw- which accessory drive works for the SLC? I assume the truck one is out since it protrudes more, so it's either going to be a CTS setup, corvette or fbody? the fbody accessories I paid around $400. plus the fbody oilpan $200 more.

    Flat Plane Crank LS1

    I've rewired a few of the LS1 411pcms to go into earlier generation camaro's and they are very easy. I say that to save you some money so that you don't buy a ripoff ebay complete package that is just stupid over priced. For engine, I assume you want a aluminum block which is going to...

    Flat Plane Crank LS1

    hey Troy, I agree with you as well, it would be good to get a different sound from the LS, people will never quite know how you did and it will be different so all for support! LS engines are still cheap to maintain, so I don't think you need to go get a ferrari engine. There are flat...

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    This goes back about 20 years, but for some of the Chicago guys they may know. There was a guy that use to come to Fluky's in Niles, IL that had a complete custom car he did with a Fiero cabin. He mounted a 350 with a th350/400 longitudinally mid engine. the wheelbase looked way stretched but...

    RCR's Next car should be.....

    it would be nice to come up with something that can use the corvette 98+ engine/transaxle configuration. Donor cars are plentiful.

    Muffler

    I would go with cats as well, the smell on a street car will get to you and the guy behind you for sure. I'm a big fan of the Borla XR series. I've heard them in person and they are very tame at idle. Here's a single xr1 video on a LS motor. Camaro SS driveby Borla XR-1 - YouTube

    Superlite GTA

    Looking at the clay a little more, totally reminds me of a lamborghini gallardo in the front. This is really going to look amazing, any photoshop guys want to do a full on paint job on the clay :)

    Superlite GTA

    late to this party for sure, wow this looks awesome. For the tall guys, I had a 90 awd eclipse after i graduated college and that was one of my favorite cars. Fit really well inside for being 6'3". buddy had a 95 that was a little tighter fit with the sunroof, but no sunroof was easy. this...

    SLC fit for tall people

    Thanks Grant, that helps a lot. Appreciate all the quick feedback. Here I am in a Superformance Cobra that I went to go try for size. I think I would have had to sit on the floor to feel that I was looking through the windshield and that the rollbar would have any chance of protecting me...

    SLC fit for tall people

    Good point Jack I did read that. Not sure what the measurements are on those. Here are some seats that are from my camaro that are very comfy aftermarket seats and what I would call the key measurements. These fit me perfect :)

    Thanks guys, very helpful feedback on the leg room, great to hear! What about shoulder width? I'm a 48L Suite size, pretty wide. In decent shape no smaller than a 46 though.

    SLC fit for tall people

    Hi guys, joined the forum officially but lurked for a long time. Trying to figure out if I'll actually fit inside a SLC? I think I've read all the builds and looking forward to all the others on here as well :) If I go the SLC route, it will be in three years when I return to the states. Was...

    good morning everyone!

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys! My first order of decision/question is around whether I will "fit" or not in these cars. I'm 6'3" and 260lbs. I do need to drop about 30 pounds to get to a reasonable weight. Today, I have a ls1 camaro ss and a c6 z06. The z06 will stay but the camaro will...
