Wide Open Design/EMTS Revolution Build

Done a little work this weekend. Axles are painted, well besides link tabs. Will paint them when i have buggy tore down for powder coat. Used several coats of Rustoleum Hammered paint, really happy with how it turned out. Painted and installed the Crane arms too.

It would take the purchase of the white house to hit your wallet hard!
 
Ive been getting parts in everyday. Still waiting on motor to get back from builders. Its getting a full rebuild with a few extras. Ive got a Cam Motion 212/218 cam and ZO6 valvesprings waiting on it. Also have an LS1 intake and throttlebody, Trailblazer SS injectors. Scored a deal on some lightly used ceramic coated shorty headers. Should make a reliable 400hp. Just picked up a 2200 stall converter and a used PSC P-pump, pulley and resevoir.

Alright Alright....Been working on it and receiving parts constantly. We just found out that we are having a second child and been looking at houses closer to the shop so that has slowed me down a good bit. Shop has been extremely busy and were shorthanded. Life is getting in the way of buggy building and fun again. Griffin radiator is mounted, seats are in. Still waiting on engine to be assembled. The AN thermostat housing and weld in An fitting for water pump came from WOD also. Makes it alot cleaner and easier to plumb it up. Them blue ZO6 valve springs look blinging on the rebuilt ported LS6 heads. Heres some pics on what i got going on.

More pics Cant wait to get the LS sitting in the chassis. Engine pic is before machine work. Cam come from Cammotion. Duration is 212'/218', .561"/.561", 112'+4'; Idle to 5,200 RPM. Should lope a lil and make good power. WOD hoked me up with a Mast Motorsorts oil pan. A good bit shorter and im sure stronger than truck pan.
