I personally feel like I haven't done anything to this car yet, it's still just a shell. I still have LOTS of surprises to come :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My fabricator and I met up today to discuss this build and to set up further meetings to try to finalize what I'm looking to have done. We're just tying up a few loose ends before pulling the trigger on the car. The initial deposit has been paid. Expect this build to start getting crazy in the...

My Dad and I went to the Nascar race in Michigan yesterday. It was a good day despite lots of rain. On the way home we stopped and picked up my newest package. Another Large Box by Austin Rajki, on Flickr I didn't open the package until after work today. Today was my first day at the new job...

It's a lot more work than it looks. Cutting/grinding on the really hot and humid days is exhausting. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I had a near death experience the other day. This cut off wheel exploded and hit me right on my eye. Thankfully I was wearing safety glasses, I didn't even get a cut from this. Got really lucky! Exploded by Austin Rajki, on Flickr I took a fair amount of material out from where the parcel shelf...

Yes sir. I figured it's already going to be the world's most impractical street car, so why not go full race car? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'll start this post off by saying that I ordered a set of Tuckin99 N2 fender flares to be like the cool kids. Still unsure whether I'm going to run those or the Jubirides. More fabrication prep work is to follow. Gas tank "hump" was cut out. Next up was removing the trim that goes around the...

Don't worry, I'll be cutting a lot more out during the week. :D It'll look about as cool as a girly hair dresser's car can look, but it'll sound pretty mean. :) Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Picked up a few things while I was out this morning. New Toys by Austin Rajki, on Flickr Then put them to work. Rough Cut by Austin Rajki, on Flickr Am I doing this weight reduction thing correctly? Weight Reduction by Austin Rajki, on Flickr Almost Done by Austin Rajki, on Flickr Almost Done...

They look a lot better than the pictures do justice. They aren't perfect, but like I said, for the money I can't complain. They're really only a temporary solution anyways. I will be posting lots of pictures of the build. The fabricator is really good for taking pictures as he goes. Sent...

Well, I have good news! I got a new job! This one is at a local shop which has won several awards for quality and awards as the best shop in the county. They build and maintain cop cars, ambulances, postal service vehicles, they offer fabrication as well as general maintenance and repairs. I...

My friend and I went to Detroit yesterday, between the 2 of us we had a full truck bed of parts. I got a few boxes and envelopes. More Parts by Austin Rajki, on Flickr The envelope in the middle was a USPS envelope that contained just the address of my knock sensor grommets. This is what it...

On top of the knock sensor grommets that I ordered I also did a lot of research regarding the PCV systems on these engines. The early LS1s had valve cover based PCV systems that have a bad reputation for oiling the intake manifold and heads. The system was changed to one which was based inside...

It is the worst. Once I'm done all this I will take the frame rail braces off and clean under them. Removing them is a 2 person job.

Just about finished cleaning my transmission tunnel. Dirty Trans Tunnel by Austin Rajki, on Flickr Clean Transmission Tunnel by Austin Rajki, on Flickr

I swear I'm still working on this car. I've spent quite a bit of time cleaning the under carriage. Not a whole lot has been going on other than the fact that I picked up a sponsor for the draintrain build. A2BMotorsports will be giving me some hefty discounts towards parts for the engine :) I...
