Default project 9 second lt1 (4th gen)

well i tried once but now a few people asked so here it is lol. im in the works of building my 95 camaro. the goal is for 9.80 on a 200 shot. the motor is/will be a forged 383 lt1 with a set of AI 200cc heads and custom solid roller cam. so far i have got almost the entire suspension. i hav a moser 9" with a locker 31 spline axles 3.70 gears. spohn chassis mount torque arm. umi 3pt subframe connectors. spohn drag sway bar. at the time lakewood lca's but they'll be changed to adjustables. i bought a spohn ls1 kmember with tubular A arms. im sellin the kmember for an lt1 kmember. i have the 383 shortblock home in the garage which will be off to the machine shop hopefully soon to get cleaned up and splayed 4 bolt mains. new bearings and a set of forged pistons installed on the rods.

in the block as it sit is eagle forged crank, eagle h beam rods, and keith black hyperutectic pistons. ive bought the main caps and arp head bolts.

this week i will be picking up a spohn adj panhard rod and working on a set of qa1's for upfront.

here's a few pics if i dont put some up that i listed i will wen i get home.
