Thanks man. We did one run without the meth to see how it would react. Even the tiny 1gal/hr nozzle made a profound difference in knock retard and iat's.

glad I could inspire, makes me want another mp62 setup. I like the tq you put down.
Great job yellowcav!!!
Straight lines are over-rated In My Opinion =]
BIG plans coming up in a month. I'll update with some teaser pics in a few days.
In the meantime, enjoy this video of Tim Adams driving the car for the first time. The video should have been on his face, I've never seen a grin like that..

Manually change the quality setting to at least 720p for best results. Was a little wet but stuff fun.

It's so worth it man. I can say definitively that a tvs is NOT in the immediate future.

Haha, I know it's worth it, I use to own a 06 Cobalt SS w/ few little mods(still had stock pulley) and I miss it. I remember my friend had a 98 Z24(intake/full 2.25" exhaust) and it felt soooo slow when I would ride in his car, now since I haven't been in a boosted car for a few years, my Z24 feels pretty quick/fun....Damn it, I don't remember what boost feels like! I am hopefully going to be buying a house over the next few months then depending on if it needs work or anything, I can start my Eco/M62 swap savings fund.

Needs more carbon fiber. And boost. As a matter of fact EVERYTHING needs more carbon fiber and boost.

Haha soon man, soon.. It's going to be installed the first weekend in April.

I guess it's time to put the plan out there for everyone. Pictures first this time:
So if you haven't figured it out by now, I'll be putting Matt's motor to good use. It's a complete LK9 (Saab version of an LSJ) with low miles and in great condition. Then it'll be getting some goodies before it goes in:
-Supertech 78lb springs (Thanks Derek!)
-Brand new LNF followers and lash adjusters
-LSJ cams with a custom Tri-Flow regrind from Geoff at Colt Cams (Another HUGE thanks to Derek for the cam gears)
-Balance shaft delete with LZM Bushings
-Brand new complete GM timing kit with ARP hardware for the timing chain components
-Direct port meth injection (will total 5gal/hr)
-Dual pass endplate
-Head-intake manifold phenolic spacer
Car will also be getting:
-Team Green limited slip insert
-Matt's used Tein SS coilovers
-Custom ordered tow strap (Thanks Mike!)
-Stainless front brake lines
-New AC Delco throw out bearing/slave cylinder, just because the trans will be out
Also, with this new motor I'm ditching Royal Purple(sux) and going with Amsoil:
Finally, BIG thanks to Chris for his custom shifter knob cover. Works great and looks cool! If anyone else has the B&M aluminum knob, they know why this is necessity in a New England winter:
BTW, Chris is selling these now for cheap if anyone is interested:

This is all getting installed the first weekend of April, updates to come!

Oooh, I may have already turned that motor into a coffee table, sorry buddy
Good choice on the Amsoil, welcome to the dark side!
Haha, Nice! So jealous right now!!! Looking forward to the new build....
