checking out the exhaust..will probably even out the driver side to match the passenger...
Thinking of having both turbos exhaust housings face passenger fender to run both exhaust
pipes to passenger side 2 into 1 for my single exhaust

Tci flex plate with arp bolts installed
Also installed starter
Looks like I may have to take off starter to install converter bolts..
Tight clearance between flex plate and engine

The zo6 cam was free with ls1 parts ..
This stuff was so cheap I couldn't believe it..
4.8 engine(long block) $250
ls1 heads,crank ,comp push rods,oil pump,zo6 cam + springs,timing chain $250
2008 rods + pistons $75
2008 4.8 crank $75
5.3 short block (spare) $75.00
4l80e (core) $50
th400 (core) $50
 
Are the 08 rods and Pistons better than the older stuff? I hear you will break rods before rod bolts
That's why I ask. Somewhere around 740 rear wheel on pump gas and 12 degrees of timing

Yes ..the 2005 and up rods are stronger that's why i switched them...
