Why do you guys always turn my threads into chat rooms? And the topic is always about wheels...

LS1 inspiration. Neal is a pioneer. In a year or two when LS1 becomes the default motor swap for 240sx and RX-7, Neal will be one of the OG gurus. Hope to see it running soon.

I wont be installing the bolt until the engine is in the car. I need the clutch and pressure plate to have the approprite resistance against the bolt. I just needed to get it seated on the snout before dropping the engine.

Re: How much torque is too much?- Project LSX-7
It has a couple differences. I had to change a couple things. I bought the motor bare so I didnt have to worry about the accessories and traded the vette "bat" oilpan for the smaller f-body one. I also had to replace the crank pully but was going to do that anyway.
