looks good .i would like to see how the coil setup works.is it a LS set?

[z28rob18]

the coils are for an ls car but the whole kit is the ltcc harness and computer

Why a .060 overbore?

[z28rob18]

i picked the block up off of a guy for a good price the block was already .040 over. they didnt wanna go .050 over because then itd need custom pistons. so they did .060 which im not to thrilled about i feel its wearin the walls pretty thin but cant change it now

got the motor out last night finally. bent 2 brake lines but its out wasnt as hard as i thought now i just hope it goes in easy. here's a few pics

[z28rob18]

well a slightly frustrating night spent on the car. took the trans off the old motor and got the old motor off the kmember onto a stand. got the headers and ory off. the trans was a pain in the a$$!!! pissed me off alot. i was completly covered in old oil cant wait to get new clean parts in. the old clutch was fried! there was nothin left of it. got work tomorrow then i may spend a few more hrs on it. here's the only pic i took
