Tim's Factory Five Mk4 Build Thread

[Jethrow]

Next step of course was to get the LS3 and TR6060 to reside in the proper place. To start with I coupled the two together, and with the help of a borrowed hoist (thanks bro) I threw the motor in to see how it might look.





Not to bad really, tho it is a bit tight around the trans in the tunnel, especially over the top.

Tim, great pics and excellent description. I am in the process of pondering my next build, and had originally thought FF4 MK4 with the Ford 5.0 cammer engine from Tasca. But being a long time Chevy guy, I read your post with enthusiasm ! What could you pass on to someone like me, who is about to pop the order to FFR and who would prefer to run LS-3 power ? Does FFR or anyone now make a kit for what you had to fabricate ?

I will appreciate in advance, anything you pass on to me !
