Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Thanks guys. The LS2 weighs 100 lbs less and will have 100 ft lbs. more torque. It's draining my wallet but the whole project is far beyond what ever budget I had in mind in the first place. This is how things snowball out of control, I guess. I still don't have a transmission but I think I can get a T56 for a decent price or drop a little more for a tko-500. Not sure yet.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Brand new L92 heads from a 6.2 liter. They flow like crazy in stock form and are pretty cheap. $650 for new assembled aluminum heads that flow 320 cfm @ .550 lift out of the box. Serious flow from a stock head. The valves are 2.16 intake and 1.59 exhaust.

Ha. the frame shortening wasn't actually that painful. Measure carefully and then measure again. Hold your breath and cut it up!

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Thanks. The other projects keep eating into my truck time so there's been little progress lately. I should have the other time sucker done by August(hopefully) and then it will be full speed ahead on the truck. I want to wait till there's no distractions and I have all the parts to build the engine. I have 95% of the parts already, but I have to sell the 350 and T-5 first before I can get another trans. I'll post it on CL soon so it shouldn't be long till I have the tko 500 on my doorstep.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
damn, I wish. I just got back from a week out of town and there's all sorts a crap piled up. Still buying parts for the LS2 though. When I get the time to build it, I won't be waiting on parts to arrive. I think I have almost every piece except the harness and ecu.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
don't know the exact measurement, but the front cross member will sit on the ground with the air all the way out. when it's aired up it's about 6 inches off. the pic of it back a couple of pages is with the air out. I can't drive it like that because the tire is sitting on the inner fender.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Unbelievably busy. Thanks for asking. If I have the time to work on the truck, I don't have the money and when I have the money, I don't have the time. There's a new years resolution in order.
