Things are moveing in the right diection for me and my car.
I have the rear suspension diff assy from an au2 xr8 lsd with abs sensors.
today i picked up a gen3 engine at the right price

and i will be pulling it apart to rebuild and modify this weekend.
Going to Sydney in june to check out Ian's cars and place my order.

What sort of internal mods are you doing to the LS1? Are you using ABS, or do you want to use the sensors for traction control?

That's good news David. Let me know when you are going to visit Ian. I might be in Sydney at the same time.

Cheers

I am looking at fitting a 383 stroker crank with new rods and
keith black pistons from c.o.m.e, also looking into modified heads from pavtec.
I was looking at spending $7500 for a crate motor so i may as well spend this money on modifications
I would like to fit abs and traction control but will decide on these whilst building the car.
I will be in Sydney between 21 june till 25 june.
Would be great to catch up if your in Sydney at that time Mike,
otherwise i will probably see you in december when i am trailering the car to Alice Springs.
If i have a gearbox by then i will bring it with me and maybe you could show me what you did to change the shifter location?
