CT # 10 Update (Page 1/25)
Jim88GT JAN 20, 07:35 PM
Well, it’s time for #10 to return to it’s birthplace for an upgrade – I’ll be returning to Archies shop in the near future to have the glass side windows installed and the 383 Ram Port with 5 speed replaced by a 476/480 LS3 6 speed combo I need to know if anyone in the Hampton Roads, Virginia area has a car trailer I might borrow or rent for the round trip – I hate wasting $ on Uhaul! A heads up to you V8 swappers - the current drive train will be available in the mall as a complete package including the cradle as soon as the dates for the trip firm up. It would be great if whoever snags it and can pick up at Archies to save me hauling it home, but I could drop it off along the way if necessary. More details to follow as plans progress.

Curley,

Emailed you one - I need to dig up some additional shots to post when I put it in the mall (if I can ever get PIP to work)

Shooting for March, if we get all the planets aligned properly! Pm me your current email address - I sent several pics and I need to verify I've got the correct one.

A bump for some Archie pics - The 383/Getrag/cradle has a buyer in Virginia

Where does the exhaust from the firewall side go?

Well we're started on getting the parts ready for the swap.

We're doing the needed LSx swap mods to the cradle & We got the new LS376-480 engine out of the crate.

Here's a few pics, more tomorrow.
