Looking great!! Man is that sharp!!

But I must ask, why is the silver heat shield on the firewall over sprayed? It there a part that will cover that up?

A false wall ( a la Chuck ) is going to cover it up a long with the wires.

Can you imagine the reflextion from underside of deck lid once its painted! I like how the orange is drawn-in by the chrome. Its like being in a glass house with thousands of mirrors; you don't know where to start or end. The same for Troy's engine bay.

That is BITCHIN!

Didn't think I was going to like all the chrome but it looks really good in there.

It looks like a diamond in a case. Great job!
Post a video when you get it running I am sure we all want to see and hear it.

Bingo we have a winner! when I would describe what I wanted to curly and Archie that is what I would say to them " the diamond in a case look" I can't wait until the chrome tranny case comes in this week. (we hope)

Any additional diamond pics?

Nope the sparkles were not in the pictures today.

We worked on installing steering rack & fitting the P.S. lines, I know exactly what fittings I'll need to hook up the P.S. when final assembly time comes.

We came up with what I think wll be the ideal location for the Dry Sump tank & P.S. resovoir. I'll be discussing that with Troy tomorrow.

We did some preliminary work on the spot brakes, now we can make the mounting brackets for them while Mark is finishing painting on the car.

Then we got some wheels mounted on it so we could put it on the rack & start fitting the exhaust parts.

The Pypes mufflers came in today & I gotta tell you that there's one big 3" hole right thru the middle of them.

Archie did the seats arrive today?

What seats?









Archie

Looks good , I see the trans case came in also

Looking good Troy but I would hate to be you when it comes to trying to keep all that chrome clean and shiney.

Got it covered, I talked to one of the kids that works at a detail shop near me. A six pack and a ride to the next car show and it's covered . ( plus tip )

Nothing like child labor to keep a man happy. LOL Tip him well as he has a chore ahead of him.

Time to start working on the exhaust, what good is an LS7 if it can't breath.......


3" Mandrel pipes;

where did you get the little cats from?

They look like Magnaflow metallic cats.

quote Originally posted by troyboy: keep us posted Archie

Will do. We did get the exhaust welded up just waiting on the SS clamps so we can clamp the mufflers & tips on to it for final fitting. Then we'll be able to send the parts out for plating like we discussed when you were here.

Been welding & grinding the welds, still got some more to do.....





I also was able to measure for all the Oil Tank lines fittings & mounts & got that all ordered.

And we have been doing some fitting on the CAI.

MUST.....SEE.....CAI.......

This thing is just plain sick! Hat's off to the owner and builders. Another incredible Fiero........ (looking at my 86 GT V8 project and dreaming of a few"changes" to my plan)....... All it takes is more green.....lol. I guess I'll have to go get that second job.... Thanks troyboy & archie....Thanks a lot.....

Archie, when mounting the motor in the bay, I think you mentioned that you have to "notch" the frame for the crank balancer. If this is true, have you tried to use the 5.3 FWD stuff? I noticed from the picture that it looks like GM made a smaller version of the balancer. Again, not sure if it works.

Rob

Nice;

Great update Archie

Thanks

here's a couple quick pics of the front end.





We plan to try to modify the seat rails to mount the seats today. Then we'll remove them before the car goes back for paint.

I think with all that extra power and weight, you should upgrade those swaybars to these:

HHP is Making Sway bars Again! Front and Rear Adjustable Bars

I'm sure with those fat tires, this will make it handle like it is on rails. Plus its adjustable.

If the ones I've already purchased don't hold I'll upgrade if needed. At this point I just want the car home. Thanks for the info
