It's simply a LS1 from a donor. coil overs, 6 speed, custom tube chassis.
The left over parts are going into the '65 barn find we started last year.

I'll have to check on it. the engine install was done a few months ago.
I think the chassis guy did it.
It's a buddy's project, the engine (and suspension parts) came from one of our wrecks.

The straps are nylon, and believe me a few light surface scratches were the least of the problems to worry about. (none were apparent after the lift was done) Stress fractures in the fiberglass, dropping the body hard, mangled fingers, mangled chassis parts, the correct balance points, and fit of the new chassis (mounting holes) all come into play.
