After setting the timing right and re-tuning the carb, today i finally went for a ride with my car to a cruise and plan to put a lot of miles on the rebuilt motor.

Just wanted to say Thank You to many people here on this forum that really helped me along the build of my motor with opinions/phone calls/private emails and actually working on my parts.

Special thanks to Eric at (Vintagemusclecar)
Paul (Plowman)
Rick Nelson

And anyone else i may have missed here. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Here are a couple of photos of the exhaust.
1969 Chevelle Chambered GM Mufflers were used.
A bit on the loud side,
i may change them or try adding the Resonators on the back but for now i will have to be a pain in the a@@ for the neighbourhood.
The company that did the Exhaust work &quot;Master Performance&quot; told me to use Flowmaster 50's to make it sound just right, they also said the Flowmaster 40's would be to loud for my LS6.
I think i will enjoy what i have on for now and decide next year if i should change the mufflers. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
