2. I didn't have to modify the pedal any. Its bolted to a flat bracket that bolts to the firewall using the 3 original nutserts that the original pedal bolted to. 3. It should be around 600+ RWHP Thanks!

Re: 68 S/C update.....
Would you mind sharing some details on your oil and transmission cooler setups? I would appreciate the info.
From some of the pics it looks like you are using a Derale heat sink cooler mounted under the core support for oil. Didn't see the transmission cooler setup. Thanks - Chad

http://derale.com/products/coolers/a...unt-kit-detail For the oil cooler I'm guessing you are talking about the stock cooler that came on the Camaro oil pan? I'm with you, I don't see a way to make it work with the slider mounts. I was thinking about trying something different with that, using a remote mounted cooler and an adapter. Not sure if you've looked at the ones from Improved Racing, but they have a thermostat built into them and AN fittings so you can mount a cooler wherever. They do have a version without a thermostat, too. Seems a little expensive and I'm not sure if its necessary to have an oil cooler anyway. http://www.improvedracing.com/cooler...28e4c74df943c5 Thoughts?

Re: 68 S/C update.....
Hart Rod.... It took me THREE (3) days to read your 54 page thread... All I can say is... Wow... Your project is insane and you have given me several ideas for my new LQ9 engine swap. If you don't mind, I will begin picking your brain tomorrow.

Re: 68 S/C update.....
Yep, Circle D is the best choice for LSx converters. Great prices, great products, and great customer service!

Circle D is great from everything I've heard and I also like Phoenix Transmission converters for a milder build. Both companies have great products and customer service
