Dry sump pan had to be modified to drop the engine down low in the engine bay and to clear the control arm.



Sprint car air filter with a carbon fibre lid and CNC billet brackets. It originally sat flush with the throttle bodies, but here it has been dropped down to surround them fully.



When you see the physical size of this motor, it's astounding that it has been able to sit down so low and so far back into the engine bay. Unfortunately, despite this the owner is still not wanting to try to squeeze this under a 5" cowl scoop. The mega-dollar custom top mount throttle bodies are being removed at the moment and will be replaced by 2 x 125mm throttle bodies mounted onto the front of the tunnel ram plenum.



Steering part of the right hand drive conversion is done.



The Chevelle is having the exhaust done at the moment.
Racing seats being replaced with leather HSV seats.
Wiring is next.
