Modifications (part 3 of 4)

I have a T5 transmission from a 2002 Camaro I will be using which comes up short with the s-chassis.  We will need to do a shifter relocation mod to move the shifter to a place I can reach it. This may have been fixed with a curved shifter, but my arms are shorter, so that would not have worked for me.

Also, with the Holden oil pan I need to try and find a Holden pick up tube.  Along with that the new oil pan is in the way of the s13 front sway bar, which I believe an LS swap s13 sway bar will do the trick.  And we need to do an oil filter relocation because the stock oil filter adapter ran into Holden oil pan.

Other mods will include things like a smaller supercharger pulley to get more power(which I have), getting 8 rib pulleys to go with the supercharger, a new fuel rail, injectors, custom driveshaft, head studs, custom exhaust, gaskets, as well as wiring harness and map sensor for the supercharger.

We also had a dilemma with the supercharger because the back of it where the intake pipe would be ran into the firewall.  So, a common modification to the supercharger is to cut the back of it off and weld a plate to it.  That will allow room for the piping.

Only have some of these at the moment, but I hope to continue with the build real soon.

We used the front power log from ZZP on both sides of the motor. For the passenger side we ended up cutting and re-welding it so that it went the correct way.  Then, we married that up underneath with an eBay Camaro aftermarket exhaust and ran piping that we welded after that.

We then just made a custom exhaust with stock piping from O’Reilly to the back of the car and used a quiet muffler we found on Amazon. We also ended up wrapping the exhaust in exhaust wrap and the fuel lines with a high temp sleeve since they run together.

With the exhaust installed we attempted to put the alternator back where the AC compressor would go, but we could not get the right angle for the belt to clear as the alternator ran into the power log. We ended up having to put it back in the stock position on the top of the motor, and to complete the belt loop, add a AC compressor idle pulley.
