Police Tribute Update

[MIGOAT]

After the paint job,the project sat idle for awhile as I continued to buy parts for the new motor. I decided to build a Pontiac motor 468cui N/A. (I didn't realize how easy and convenient a LS motor would be until it was too late. I had the engine built for 645hp and 650tq. The real numbers came out to 602hp and 605tq on the dyno.

Once LS1 Excitement helped pull the motor we decided we would smooth the firewall a little and make the engine bay stand out a bit.
I think it came out great. Paul isn't a body man but he was able to help me learn how to weld a little and give me confidence to start new projects in the future.

The firebird in the back ground is his 275 radial car, running some 5.40's in the 1/8mi.

Yes that's a 200R4 however since this picture was taken we have acquired a t56 6 speed. We still need a clutch, AFW and Tick performance adjustable master.


Stay tuned for our install of black 04 GTO seats. I will try and take more pictures for the next few build updates. The seats do sit high if you just weld a bracket on the bottom. I'm cutting off as much as I can to weld a flat steel bar across the front and L brackets in the rear to keep the height down.
The backs definitely need to be altered but since PT has so many people doing builds and providing information, I have figured out it's easy to customize them down.
