I've sent two to three emails to Blainefab over the last year or so and I don't think I've gotten any responses back to any of them. Is he still in business?

SDPC is nearly giving me an LS3 shortblock so I think it may be time for his accusump setup just in case.

Is this going to be a race car you occasionally drive on the street or a street car your occasionally race? The differences may seem subtle now, but the reality of street driving a combo like that certainly has its share of draw backs. PM me or call me and we can talk about street driven race cars. The one in my driveway has taught me a few lessons...

It's seen about 100 street miles since 2018 and the clutch never gets slipped below 3k. No radio, no HVAC, wipers are broken, no bumper beams. I have an E46 M3, RX8, and motorcycle for fun street driving.

Anybody want to buy a 165k mile LS1 that has 12% leakdown on #1? Need to replenish the funds.

Intake is here, stock LS3 that was nabbed from Rock Auto for $221 shipped. Also grabbed a 340lph fuel pump (still retains the stock style venturi) to feed the 72lb injectors with E85. Supposedly it eliminates the stock style regulator at the tank so I'm also converting to aftermarket rails with a regulator and return line. Some day I'll even get my shortblock but at least I'm in no rush for that.
