Look at todays project, Done!
I met a fellow motorhead on ls1tech, we did my 3:42 rear diff and Yank 3200 stall today at his place. I thought I was good with a set of wrenches until I met him, Started at 10:00 am finished at 6:30 pm. Wow, is all I can say. What a difference! Next couple of weeks will be valve train and tune. You will have to beat the smile off my face. Thanks to the Corvette forum members that sold me the parts.

Congrats on the upgrades. Nice to have experienced help when you tackle a project like that. 
That pile of parts really scares me.

I was scared too until I saw this guy working his magic, he's good. Hell we even broke for lunch and went to the store and upgraded his tranny jack. He is Quicksilver on LS1tech by the way. Cant thank him enough.

If you didnt already, get a converter. The Yank 3200 is freakin fantastic. Its perfect for me, drives great really close to factory. Mash the gas from a dead stop and its like driving a different car. I have huge traction issues now, looks like its time for a little stickier tire.
