made some small progress started fitting a few things up started to modify my shiftier plate due to the rip shiftier being further forward than i measured up no biggy it all fit the console fine but the shiftier was really high so i made up a shortened shiftier arm came up nice. control arms are back from coating also cam up sweet, ordered all my diff components summit racing alloy case Daytona pinion support and billet lsd and went 4.11 gears which i’ve heard is pretty good for a ls1 t56. my rocker covers landed FINALLY
