I just finished purchasing Alan's (CaliforniaDomestics on the jbody.org) almost complete kit. He will be helping me install it after I purchase a few other parts that are needed. I estimate (with his help) that for around 1200-1300 dollars, I will be pushing 250 hp on a stock motor. The blower is ported to 75 MM by Steigmeier.

Alan was running the 2.9 pulley, 36 lbs injectors, a Aeromotive AFPR, meth, and the Cobra h/e setup, and his peak HP was 248 and some change...averaged out at like 235ish for all the times he went to the dyno. He did NOTHING with the GM reflash since of course you cant. He ran the reflash and thats it...

Here is a pic from when it was in his car...

Here are a few others..





Now to go on top of that, I will be running a LS1 TB. Of course with this will come a nice HPTune. I bought a adaptor from a member on the org, and worked on a few things.

I bolted the TB to it se we can see what it will look like. The top is the part with the standoff on it that will hold the throttle and cruise cables. I MIGHT use this one, and remake that standoff to only have the slot for the throttle cable as I have no cruise. Then I will ask my roommate to redo a few of the welds, and just cut new ends.







And the last part of this project is to put the LSJ valve cover on the L61 head.

These are a few parts I need to order to make this complete. The coilpack is moddified to work now, and was the first piece that I did anything on. The valve cover is painted and ready. I jsut need to order these parts, and get the half moon from my DSM buddy, and I am set.

Just bought the fuel rail cover that I want. I bought it used from PJ from jbody.org....
Also I updated a bunch of parts with links in the post about this.




This is the cover that goes in the middle of the valve cover.

Pj came to the rescue again...NAPA EC144 or AcDelco PT787...those are the part numbers for the plugs I will need to make my extension.



Here are a few of the painted cover...Should I gloss it of leave it flat black?






Here is a list of a few things that i am still looking to get.
Racetronix Fuel pump
Fuel Pressures Gauge
Cobra H/E Pump
Pump Harness and Relay
Misc Hoses for H/E setup
Aeromotive AFPR
Interceptor Gauge
Wideband Gauge
Upper Radiator hose
Supercharger belt
Meth Kit

WOOO!! Sorry for the huge pictures guys.

 

Ok, So I just made the template to make the coil cover for the valve cover. Basically, I am going to leave the ICM in its stock location due to the fact that if I leave the area flat it will remind me too much of a Honda, and I dont want that. It will look good though. I am going to make the part tomorrow or sometime this week, and hopefully we will be able to bolt this cover on at a meet this weekend.

I also got the stage 2 cobalt belt off of the same guy I got the alternator from. I am well on my way now. Things are coming off the list now... LOVE IT!

 

Good Luck!

 

Latest Update. The top plate is on and ready to go. This will be on the car tomorrow night barring any major setbacks.

 

wow looks good. good luck with all of the build.

 

well guys the cover is on and working. Here is a quick cell phone pic. Ill post more tomorrow night.

 

Well everyone, I know you are probably bored to death with this thread, OH WELL!!! lol
Here is the valve cover put on and working with now leaks, and no issues with the ICM or any or the wiring. I rotated the ground wire on the back of the block 90* and it fit perfect. The white cover is a template only, and on Monday is being taken off and made out of aluminum. I will either have 2.2 supercharged milled into it, or leave it plain and polish the hell out of it so it matches the blower. Hope you enjoy the progress.

 

wow thats sick.

 

That's awesome... I might do that for my superchargd 2.2

 

no no rob...u MUST DO THIS.

 

The AIS boost controlled Meth kit, as well as Cyberdyne boost and oil pressure gauges (digital) and my innovate wideband showed up last night. I just orderd my pump for the intercooler/heat exchanger. That is all I needed. Now its time to get this stuff put on.

 

Nice man! GL with the build!

 

Just orderd my 27 inch resonator from Jegs for $27.98. Should be here in a week or so. I will probably install this and weld the bung for my o2 on at the same time. my g/fs cousin is a welder, and will do it all for me. he does great work.

 

well, dont have the g/f anymore, and the now the blower goes on. lol this friday i am putting it on.

 

Hhaha nice.Whats the purpose of the LSJ VC on the L61?
