![]() Today I stopped by a local off-road shop to pick up fittings and wire loom and found a master cylinder for my clutch. It's made by Jamar and has a 3/4" bore with a nice size reservoir. I also liked the fact it's machined black and isn't all blingy lol. They also offer a rebuild kit for it.

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Thanks Dean!
Almost ready to put gas in it.. I am really happy how well my wiring came out for the ECM and start/charging system. I found some really nice heat shrink with numbers on it at Fry's electronics. I was able to number each wire and make a schematic (key) for my wiring.

Found my molded radiator hoses in the Napa catalog. They are one of the few places that can still find parts by measurements instead of application.

I'm interested in the clutch master you got. I'm ancious to see it mounted as I'm on the lookout for a master for my build. I also like the non blingy part.

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
I Just got it running a couple of hours ago! My kids and wife are laughing at me because of my excitement lol.. It's been 4 long years, especially after purchasing an engine that I never heard run with a 1 year warranty that expired 3 years ago. It started right up and ran perfect!
![]() My daughter just made me a YouTube account so that I could upload my video. I'm so behind on all this technology that she had to set up the whole thing for me, I don't know what I'm gonna do when she goes to college haha. Here's the link: http://youtu.be/R899YQ1OcjU

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Sounds great Mark, is that the stock cam or did you change it? I know your running open headers but it sounds lumpy

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Mark,
I just read through your entire build thread. Excellent work and good job! It's giving me inspiration for my new build project. I recently bought an original '71 SWB out of Arizona for my next project. It's a good starting point for me. I am planning to do an extensive build such as yours. I am looking to install an LS engine, but with automatic. I decided to use Scotts Hot Rod for my chassis. After looking into everything I wanted to do with the suspension, I decided to buy a custom built chassis. It should be here by the end of January. Very exciting. Once again, great work and I look forward to following the rest of your build.
