Default Its not much but...

Here is where I am at on my LT1 Project. Few issues Im running into. My headman headers cleared the 4 speed stick with room to spare, but they place the pipes VERY close to the 4L60E Pan. Anyone else have this issue? I also had to use a 700R4 Crossmember from BO. Not sure the VSS will clear the bar.

That looks great so far. What plans do you have for the air intake system?

Was thinking something simple. Maybe take a 1LE F-Body intake and turn it upside down so it bends to the passenger side. I plan to keep the MAF.

Hey, I have another question for you, but don't mean to hijack.

Since you seem to have the bare LT1 front face, do you think a TBI or TPI style water pump would bolt onto the front in place of the stock water pump? Also, does the balancer have the built in pulley or does the pulley bolt to the front as with most other balancers?
