Finally got my stereo put in that's been in the spare bedroom for almost 2 years. Found someone to build a box/center console for the P3 fosgate sub I had. I wanted to do something that wouldn't take up my storage space behind the seats. There's not much in a RC GMT 400 and I definatly didn't want to loose it all. It turned out really nice it doubles as an arm rest and has cup holders at the bottom of it. It's pretty big but had to be for the air space the sub needs.

Had to end up giving the LQ9 a refresh since it had water in the cylinders. I believe it's going to put out some good power. Here's a list of some of the goodies.

05' LQ9
ARP rod,cam and head bolts
Clevite main bearings
Comp cam (not giving specs just yet but it's pretty big)
Hardned push rods
LS7 lifters
Ported/Polished,milled 317's
Dual valve springs with titanium retainers
LS2 timing chain
High volume oil pump
TBSS intake
8.1 marine injectors

I'm sure I've missed lots of stuff but this is what I could think of right now.

Yes, pistons where fly cut. The cam is a MS3. Can't remember specs right off hand.

What did you end up doing on the TQ converter? Please tell me you aren't running a stock converter with an MS3.
