Pro Touring '72 now going LS2
#202
I used Holley High mount for truck spacing. I have since changed the AC setup to low mount.

Agree with this. i am in the process of swapping to an LS1/T56 and wound up using BHP motor/tranny mounts with Holley 302-1 pan. Stating that i did notice that the BHP mounts sat the engine high and there could be room for the F-Body pan. i do like the clearance for the headers though. You would need to measure and maybe consult BHP.

Haven't posted any updates in a while. Installed LS3 heads and a BTR cam on the car this summer, runs great, I also decided to start my LSA conversion. I needed new inner fenders also so I decided to go with the red ones. Car should be ready to fire up again mid January at the latest.

It's pretty mellow right now, so it will probably just have that little SC whine
Thanks. I'm going to get all my hoses routed and i have to install my PS reservoir and new catch can. Always fun...

Haven't been updating this in a while. Now that my hoses are routed and everything else is in place, its time to clean up my wiring. Need to mount the ECU again a loom my fan controller wires. Waiting for more braided wire loom and it should be quick. I also tapped my lid and ran hose for boost reference needed by the fuel pressure regulator.

Its been a LOOOOOOONG time since I posted anything here, so I will update with the condensed version: the car was tuned, and put on the road. I ended up wrapping the car in satin white for summer 2019....
I took the car off the road in fall 2019. The person i wanted to paint said he really didn't have the capacity to do my paint and body, but did agree to do my quarters. Removed the wrap and had the quarters replaced.
In Jan 2021, I found another shop that was able to get me in for body and paint... Dropped her off and waited for the final results...

That thing looks amazing. Some blue lines from diamond back would really finish it off. Especially with the calipers

Thanks, I saw it on another car and immediately know it was the one....

So the car sat on the back burner for most of this year. The shop I wanted to do the wiring had a spot open up where they could get me in so I jumped at the opportunity. Should be finished in a couple weeks then off to interior.

Wiring was done for a while and I'm very happy with the results. The did a complete universal body harness using American Auto Wire HWY 22 kit. The shop doing the work preferred the universal harness over the Classic Update. Before taking it in I had already installed the power windows, remote door lock actuators and moved the battery to the trunk. Also included was:
Aux Fuse/relay panel in engine bay for hx pump and fans
Aux fuse panel under the console for USB port power
remote trunk release wiring
wiring of electronic parking brake actuator control box
ground bar behind dash
Dakota Digital
Vintage Air
main power
Trunk mounted battery with cutoff

I also had them clean up the wiring in the engine bay and make me a custom air intake tube. Just waiting to go to interior shop now...
