Official Gramps' Memorial Eternal OT Thread

I’ve had one colonoscopy and loved it, whatever they use to put you to sleep is the best stuff ever. I was disappointed when the Dr said I don’t need another for 10 years.

As for prostrate exams, I still haven’t figured out how the Dr does it with both hands on my hips but they’re quick.

I'm just about done with this project...3 years later. I spent some time at the tuners shop today and didn't quite reach the goal I had in mind with the car, although it's a good foundation to build on. One of the last things to be swapped will be the rear end, as it's still running the GM 10 bolt 7.5" with 2.73 gearing, which did allow it to run to 161 mph on the dyno in a 4th gear run. There's still some work left to do on the performance side but this car is an absolute blast to drive and can't wait to get this one on a road course.

408 LS
K1 forged rotating assy.
11.7:1 compression
AFR LS3 heads
Comp cam .621"/.624". 235/251 w/ 112 LSA.
Tremec magnum F 6spd.

Best #'s of the day - 490 whp @ 5600 rpms. 485 torque @ 5000 rpms

I remember when you started posting pics of the project. At one point you had the interior removed and were cutting through the sheet metal where the back seat sits.

Thats sick man. Right at 500/500 at the wheel and it looks beautiful under the hood. Really clean build. Glad you remembered to come post the pics.

I don’t see a MAF sensor on the intake path did you stick with the GM preferred speed density fuel/air control? Aftermarket ECM or just reflash? The usual narrow band O2’s or wide bands? Looking very good man that car will be a hoot to drive.
