Mike Adair Dallas LS1 VR under construction

I can't remember if Mike has posted to Hybrid before, but he sent me some photos I just had to share. I've posted them at http://www.reactionresearch.com/gtorr/Gallery/mikeadair.html

 

Mike is installing an LT6 (correction, "LS1"), and a 240SX multi-link rear suspension with 335 width rear tires!

 

He actually sent me a CD maybe a month ago and I just had the opportunity to look at it yesterday. It contained over 500 images! He hasn't really even started the bodywork yet.

 

I suggested that he organize the photos (which include motor mounts specific to that driveline, chassis reinforcing details, etc.) and sell them for $10 each. I'm sure he'd gladly give away the information (he's such a nice guy), but a) it would help cover his time, B) it would help defray the expenses, and c) that's way too many images to try to post anywhere!

 

What do you guys think? Anyone interested?

Thanks for the info and the correction. Mike emailed me earlier today to correct that same info and I had not gotten around to posting the correction.

 

I was wondering about that around the time I hit the "post reply" button. A good memory is not something for which I am known. I always say that it's not due to too few brain cells...it's just that I have all of them fully occupied!

 

Here's the corrected info (some of which I'm sure every good HybridZ member already knows...all I know about V motors is that they should have twelve cylinders and should be swinging a four-bladed prop):

 

It is an LS1. LS1's came in the last generation Camaros, Firebirds, and the C5 Vette. The Z06 has an LS6, which is an LS1 with cam heads, different valves and springs and a different intake. Mike's engine has a few of the LS6 components but not the heads and cam.

 

He also has a T56 six-speed tranny.
