Picked up a LS1 last week for dirt cheap, engine was fine as is but rebuilding now rather than later.





Brand new NNBS intake manifold



Billet timing chain set



More details to come!

That timing set looks familiar! Good luck with the build! Let us know if you need anything else!

The engine should be assembled completely by 3/9 and target date for install is 3/30/12 so it can be tuned on 3/31. Thanks to the guys @ SDPC and extra thanks for delivering the timing set and other parts in person!

I need a DBW pcm if anyone has one for sale, might not be done with engine in time for tune and would like to have two PCM's tuned.
