Quick question to the LSA experts out there: I will be running a 2.55 Griptech upper with a stock lower along with a stock balancer. I've been entertaining a 8.660 lower but didn't know if I needed to upgrade my balancer or if the lower pulley would even bolt to my stock balancer. Thoughts?


Got it figured out. Will wait to do a Innovators West setup.

Installed the new Hurst shifter tonight. Really simple, also put the race bushings in the shifter instead of the plastic bushings. Sounds pretty quiet so far, will know more once I drive it to work tomorrow. I have to learn how to drive it again. I haven't had a manual with a shifter this tight and this precise...

I gotta say, it looks pretty freakin good...

Ordered the vented 6 piston brake upgrade this week with these pads: Hawk Performance HB512F.605 HPS Performance Ceramic Brake Pad. So excited!

Beauty ride! The blue is awesome with those wheels. Stay with the red brakes too. Good choice IMO. The shifter sure brings back memories. Very good taste. Keep it up. I bought the LED taillights but have not installed yet. I need anything I can do to wake up the white body. Maybe stripes and definitely wheels. All the money is going into mechanical so far. Just started my build thread today."White Lightning" Keep up the good work and pictures. Your car is awesome.

Thanks brother , appreciate it. Just ordered a ported blower and PRC260 heads tonight from Roshan at boostdistrict.com. He takes great care of me.

Love the build man. Just got my SS, already itching for a supercharger. Looks like you’re in the Seattle area, I’m in Snohomish/Lake Stevens. Hopefully we cross paths, new to the LS world

I am looking around at any shifters for the SS, where did you get your Hurst? I haven't found any that specifically say they are for the SS.

I used the 2010-15 Camaro SS. Got it at RDPstore.

There was a G8/SS meetup in Bothel a few months back but I’m not aware of anything recent. Attendance tends to be better in less inclement weather. Would love to see your build in person @a6d9cmro.
