    The pcv like costs 100 or so that I don't have right now. That blows.
    But I'll be getting a custom drive shaft when I know it runs and I rebuilt it right. With it being my first rebuild I really hope I didn't fuck anything up

      On your way to VA you should take a detour and swing through Deals Gap. ;)


      Cable worked fine. Installed it yesterday. I'll take more pictures tonight.

      Tonight is fender rolling time to see how wide of tires I can go with me still being able to drop it on bags

        What's holding you back from cranking it over? Seems like you are at the point that you can at least see if it is going to run

          Fuel lines need to be put in
          Radiator needs to be mounted
          Exhaust needs to be made.
          Then the little wiring there is.


          I should've put all the wires in the inside. It looks like a clusterfuck and now it doesn't fit in the whole so I might have to disconnect everything to give it that clean look.

            You should bolt the manifolds on and do your wiring and just see if she fires you don't need a radiator in or full exhaust to do that. Where do you plan on running your fuel filter/regulator?

              When u get your driveshaft built you should really invest in a strap style front yoke, i used a dennys driveshafts front strap yoke and dont regret spending the extra dough on it makes removing a snap

                Fuel filter will go under where the external fuel pump was

                  How much would a custom driveshaft liked that run me

                    Looks like I have to sell my rx7 fronts because they won't clear my wheels without a 30mm spacer. But. Then I wouldn't be able to air out.

                    So I guess I'm going to just go stop tech fronts with slotted rotors like my rears are.

                    :/ I wanted the rx7 brakes but it'll look stupid with the rear wheels being tucked and the front wheels all out and shit.

                        It is cheaper if you make your own with fuel line and fittings from an auto parts store.


                        Parts you need
                        3 feet of 3/8" fuel line
                        pvc valve part# PCV1199
                        fuel line 3/8" brass Tee
                        (99 engines only) 90 degree soft boot part# 47029
                        (2000-02 engines only) 1/2" x 1/2" brass elbow from Home Depot
                        PCV end assembly part# 46017
                        3/8" brass barb mender union

                        Here is a picture of what the oem pcv hose looks like on an ls1 and how it connects.



                        The fuel line going across the back is 18" long
                        The fuel line going from the back to the PCV Valve is 17" long
                        The fuel line going from the T to the passenger valve cover back is 7" long
                        The fuel line going from the Passenger valve Cover front is 10" long.
                        (only for 2000-02 engines) You are gonna shove the brass elbow into the hole on the driver side valve cover so you can connect the fuel line to it.
                        (only for 99 engines) 90 degree soft boot goes on driver side valve cover so you can connect the fuel line to it.

                        This is what everything is supposed to look like when you are done.


                        not my pictures.
                        Good Luck!

                            No problem, it should last longer then the shit oem one that drys out and falls apart in only a few years.

                              Alright. So don't know if I'm gonna sell the rx7 kit or keep it for later when I decide to change wheels.

                              We tried to fit these wheels and it won't work at all. So I ordered power stop sport calipers rotors and pads and also ordered two 205/45/16s.

                              Cort rolled my fenders today, he has this bad ass e36 that he built from the ground up. One of the fastest cars around here.


                              Anyways we wanted to see how wide we can go I the rears. So we test fitted the 225:45:16 and honestly it looks like the perfect size for it to be able to bag and look good too. I wanted 245s but it'd look stupid poking out especially since I'm on air. If I was on coilovers I'd go 245s
