Alright well its been awhile.. just been driving the truck until the motor decided it wanted to throw a rod through the block. Pretty much starting from scratch again, going to take my time and do my floor boards and tossing up a few ideas. Going to go coil overs and debating on a wilwood pedal system and some Scat procar 1000 seats. Going to strip both harnesses and weed out all the wires i dont need. Last motor was fun.. cant wait to get this 500hp beast hooked up.  :hyper:  :hyper:

Why stop at 500hp why not 750hp.

good point.. might have to hook up some nitrous. Throw some wings on it and ill be flying around like the Jetsons.

 

 

500Hp??? 250hp is overkill on a 521

 

Any diff upgrades?

 

Not quite sure what the plan is yet. I recently purchased some 3.7 gears before the blacktop blew up so maybe ill just run those and see how far it gets me until i get a narrowed 8.8 or something that will hold the power.

I would be very interested in seeing the engine brackets and rubber isolaters mounting that engine in there. I'm dropping a z22 in my 510 wagon and there are some odd fitment issues I'm encountering.

What kind of fitment issues? I have a Z20S in my 510 and it look like it should be there. It is gutless. The only issue is the brace on the hood had to be notched for the weber air cleaner and I had to install the hood shocks. If you have any questions or want any pics let me know.
