LS1 Porsche Build

[the951racer]

Yea. I thought about that but, to be honest I really don't know what kind of power I'm gonna be putting down. You guys would know better than I, as this is my first time building an LS1. And I don't want to get too much clutch and not have the power to justify it.

Oh, and just bought a LSx stand alone wiring book from F-Bodies Inc. Hopefully it will speed up my least favorite automotive task.

any updates?

[the951racer]

My update on this build is this.....This past Monday I planned to put the tranny back in and finish removing the rest of the bits from the engine bay......but, she had other plans. My wife and I welcomed our new baby girl into the world. So needless to say I didn't get a chance to work on the car.

[the951racer]

Will be jumping back on it ASAP. Gotta train her how to hand me wrenches.

Congrats! Them little ones sure can be a game changer huh?

You'll love being a dad if you were'nt before..

Wow, congrats man!!!! My wife and I are expecting our first child in April. I'm sure you're gonna be pretty exhausted the next month or two, lol.

More like 6 or 7 months of exhaustion. Unless you are a lucky one whose child falls asleep through the night early. We were not that lucky.

[the951racer]

Thanks a lot guys! Yep, it's our first and yep....a game changer indeed! Lots of work. It's funny how you begin to to cherish 3-4 hrs of straight sleep. Haha

Congrats...I gave up my 96 FB for my daughter so I know how you feel about putting things on hold.

[the951racer]

Wow...yep the sacrifices we make. Fortunately the Porsche isn't going anywhere but, on pause for now.

Hey guys, a little update.....ordered my Comp rocker arm trunion kit today and got a little more of the engine bay cleared out in preparation for respray. Oh and removed the stock bearing and reunions from my rocker arms.

[the951racer]

Trunions** damn predictive text

[the951racer]

Oh and quick question.....I'm getting ready to install the cam and was wondering if degreeing it was necessary??? Any input would be a great help.

[the951racer]

Oh and this is the crown jewel to finish everything off at the end of the build.......
