    I already have a freshly rebuilt LS3 :) I just need a 6 speed Trans and a transfer case to go with it. But I could sell it for the supercharger and a 7th injector kit

    Ha. The care free is rubbing off of my lady now that I'm around 6000 into my LT setup and I still have a lot to buy. I'll most likely push the build purchase into next yr to let her cool down a bit.

    Yeesh.


    Envy you, I do not. Well, I will once your LT is a thing. Until then, however, best of luck keeping the Mrs sane!:oops:


    I wonder what your next money pit of a project will be after the long travel is complete?..:D

    4x4 would be a good one. Same with the LS. Not to much of a fan of turbos but I love the horsepower gains.

    I think there are cheaper ways to go about it. You don't have to have stainless steel braided brake lines or slotted brake rotors & etc.
    Do some research and shop around for the cheapest stuff. I know for sure I could have went cheaper but I wanted the best possible braking performance.

    Im a wholesaler so i wont make you cry with my pricing! The cores charges on these calipers are at $72-77 bucks each on top of caliper price!! But i preferred the cross drilled and slotted rotors in a black zinc finish since i go through some Gnarly, muddy, dirty, sloppy $hyt.

    Your red is a nice touch though.......Id have that nice red tore up fast!!

    Isn't the caliper cost only one facet though? If I go with the best quality everything even with your caliper pricing I'd still be over 500 total right?
