The project is evolving again lol . I was able to pick up a 2016 LT1 and 8L90 transmission with 26k. 455hp 460tq should move it along.
I'll be collecting parts for a while. I'm going to do the DOD delete and have an LT5 cam on order. I'm hoping I can make enough room to keep the factory accessories. This Gen V stuff is a pretty big learning curve for me but I'm pretty excited about the prospect.
