LsBeema 452 Report post Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Mounting fuel reg, have to shift lower cos thinking about the max space needed for cold air induction. An older holden v8 radiator might fit. Getting brake booster and fluid hoses....then I can bleed the clutch and brakes.... That shifter feels freaking GREAT!! Like one of those you just want to SMASH IT into 2nd....not like i ever plan or intend to...? Finally got me a knipex...man the cut smooth az!! Effortlessly!! These 275/35/20s came in for and e60...had to set them up for a pic?? Edited July 27, 2020 by LsBeema Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LsBeema 452 Report post Posted November 9, 2020 The setup of the exhaust where the X is after the resonators gives it less of a Ls V8 rough sound and abit more of a Bmw smoother V8 one.....in my Zimbabwean 2 cents opinion 20201110_081945.mp4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LsBeema 452 Report post Posted November 11, 2020 (edited) Not forgetting the venturi effect combo with the placement of resonators and cross section...get more of a bmw v8 tone rather than a Ls Edited November 11, 2020 by LsBeema 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
