dude your s13 is just pure WIN!!! i read through the build on that forum and it seems like a lot of custom fab. BTW did you go with the ls2 to just build it N/A? Because i think ls1 motors are known more for boost applications.

Ya, there is a ton of fab work that goes into this car. I really like custom fabricated stuff obviously haha. Future Fabrication in Tempe, AZ does most of the hardcore stuff, with me doing some of the lighter easier stuff.

I did the LS2 with plans on an N/A build yes. Trying to get away from all the heating and reliability issues turbo cars have. This engine N/A will make more power and torque than that SR did at half the rpm it took the SR to make it, and do it reliably. There is no need for boost on this engine.

Hey, I remember you. Did you get your radiator sorted out?

Naw. I got into a bender fender recently so the money has gone towards fixing that.

Surprisingly the radiator didn't get bent, so I'm still using it. That time was the first and only it overheated, weird......

I could have had a fully functioning LS2 in my hatch for the same amount I have in my SR and my SR STILL runs like crap
