A few years back I picked this up for $400:

Many things happening later:

Many many many more things happened, eventually it was a running series 2 L67 powered rusto-resto:

Somewhere along the way I ended up with an NIC cam and 3.25 pulley build, using modified LG3 headers.

Then I got around to some body work:

And then I broke the input shaft on the 4t65e-HD. Decided it was time to upgrade..

As if that wasn't enough, I slapped on a custom turbo setup:

Eventually I got everything done, running, and took it out for some fun!

And what fun would it be without a track day?

Setup is limited to 9psi for the moment, fuel injector upgrade is on the way along with e85. Everything is ready for 25psi, just need fuel and a tune. There are several other mods in the works, some will go on this winter, others will be an ongoing project.
