    New LSX Engine

    Have not been on here for a while, for a good reason though but now that the LSX engine has been built and installed (13K latter) I figured that I would get on here and see whats going on. This build has been exhausting for me. I got the car back about 4 months ago and it has been in and out of the shop every other week and my frustration is about at its peak to where I am thinking of maybe selling it but they are telling me that we almost have the kinks worked out. I did manage to have some fun since I have gotten it back. I was able to take it to Cruisin O.C. although it started acting up at the end. I also took it to the car show at Pep Boys in Glen Burnie and took 1st place in the Dyno Shootout for V8 forced induction but couldn't get a true reading cause the tires broke loose at 5500RPM and at that point it was at 571RWHP and 519TQ. So it just went back into the shop after sittin for a few weeks to get the master cylinder for the clutch replace. Should have it back next week and I will try to find something going on to get into if I have any $$$$$$ to do so.

    I have to look into how to put pics on here, do we have a spot where we can add pics to are profile?
    Well all they could use from the last engine which was an LQ9 block was the crank and heads. This engine looks the same except for the orange LSX block and its 376ci but they put a bigger more aggressive cam in it so it sounds way better at idle. You can view a lot of pics of it if you go to my Face Book page (Robert Green)

    Open a free account at http://www.photobucket.com and upload the pics from your computer to that site. After uploading, save the pics to your album and when you "mouse over" a pic you will see codes appear beneath it. Left click on the [IMG] code and it should say "Copied" and then simply right click and paste the code into your post on here. A line of code will show up in your post and then the pic will appear after you submit it.

    That is only the premium service that you have to pay for. Standard account should be free.
