Well its time to start my guts swap for my Sy. The truck turned over 88,000 miles yesterday when I pulled in the driveway, so I thought no better time to tear her appart and make her a monster 
She was getting really hard to drive since I smoked the trans about a year ago doing a 13+ psi boost launch. Plus I need some $$ to finish the project, might as well sell the old stuff :tup:
Here is day one of tear down, all accomplished in about 30 min. Stay tuned as I post up pics of the new guts and the project as i complete it day to day.
The new build is:
-Stock block, .040 over, half filled with Hard Blok, billet 4 bolt splayed main caps, nitriated/croyed stock crank, Eagle forged rods, custom 9:1 Diamond boost pistons with ceramic coated domes and dry film coated skirts, Total Seal zero gap rings, Comp custom grind cam with Comp everything valve train and ARP/stainless bolts everywhere.
-Unported Brodix -8 heads.
-Modified Brodix carb intake to EFI, forward facing sheet metal intake elbow and a TPIS billet 58mm throttle body.
-83# low imp. injectors, external fuel pump set-up with sumped tank, with a Holley Dominator EFI set-up.
-RPM stainless headers, downpipe, fuel rails, motor mounts, valve covers, steering shaft, etc..
-PTE 6466 gen 2 dbb turbo with a custom PTE 3.5" thick behind the grill mounted intercooler.
-Tial wastegate and bov.
-Griffin radiator with a ramchargers fan set up.
-Rear mount battery with a Davey Z custom battery tray/mount/wiring.
-Remac transmission Billet 4L80e build, 32 spline output shaft, 32 spline input on transfer case, installation kit and 3000 stall Precision multi-disc convertor.
-Alot of powder, bead blasted aluminum, and stainless braided line.
-Hydroboosted C5 front/4th gen Camaro rear brakes with baer 13"/12" rotors, anodized black calipers, black zinc plated caliper brackets, and ceramic pads.
-Rebuilt and coated frame, rear end, and suspension components with all new urethane bushings. Rear sway bar and battle bars.
-OEM grand sport wheels with 275/40 R17 front and 315/35 R17 rear, with ET street drag radials on all corners.
