    I do. Ive just been lazy. I just ripped out the motor.

    We added

    TSP Cam w/ pushrods
    799 Heads w/ valve springs and a trunnion upgrade
    Ls6 Valley Cover w/ pcv delete.
    Ls7 lifters
    Upgraded oil pump
    Upgraded Timing Chain
    Ls6 Intake
    40lb injectors

    Its getting a dyno tune on the 7th. We are hoping for around 385 rwhp. After reinstalling the motor we noticed home much room we had on the passenger side of the motor. Soooo...now Im collecting parts to add a turbo. I'm thinking a 70 series wheel with a.96 hot side. We are going to run truck manifolds and fabricate the crossover tube and downpipe. 550 rwhp should be fairly easy with about 5-6 psi which shouldn't be a problem for my fuel system.

    As far as the outside I added a evo rear spoiler with the DTM large flap and a front splitter.

    I'll add pics soon.

    I also just stumbled onto this thread. I commend you on doing everything right the first time without short cuts. I will be referring to this build soon.

    Looks like a sick build. Do you have pics of the interior?

    Just stumbled into this thread, this build looks like the kind of frame off ground up resto done on classic muscle cars, and it's got the v8 to boot! Badass.

    love the build...

    two quick questions if I may.

    are those "stock" m3 fenders?

    and what tire/wheel combo are you using?

    thank

    Got the car weighed today at a certified scale...

    2780lbs which included about 30lbs of misc. crap in the car. Not bad considering the stock vehicle weights in at about 2850lbs. I would guess that I have about 20 to 30lbs of stuff that still needs to be reinstalled on the vehicle. Either way I am happy with sub 2800lbs. I dont have access to get weight bias but when I do ill post it. I have seen others around 55/f 45/r which isnt bad at all.

    Nice M3. Wouldn't happen to be the one that was at CalTuned a few weeks ago? Got a few quick seconds of drooling (next to it lol). If not, Sac is set with M3 LS cars!
