Default SumtinCoo's LQ9 build thread

Hey guys just thought I'd start posting pics of everything I started working on. I've had the motor since march and I've been in the process of tearing it down and collecting parts till now. So far I've got the rotating assembly in the block and that's it. I'm waiting on my cam to be ground at the moment and I'm doing a little port work on my heads while I'm waiting on that.

My parts list
LQ4 block
LQ9 pistons and rods
LS7 lifters
LS2 trays
799 heads
Pat g specd 234/242 .629/.629 112+4
PAC 1209x springs good to .750 lift
Trunion upgraded stock rockers
TBSS intake with 36lb injectors
92mm TB
Comp cams double roller timing chain
LS2 timing chain dampener
New oil pump
New water pump
All new gaskets
Arp head bolts
New motor mounts
LS1 E fans

Still have to buy
LS6 valley cover
85mm MAF
Pushrods

Sounds like a fun build! I was looking at nearly the exact same setup but with a smaller cam since I have an auto and still wanted to tow.
