Hey Cliff are y'all sure you don't need bigger brakes?

I know you have the 'vette brakes but are they up to the task??

The 'Vette C5 front brakes will be working in conjunction with the Wilwood 4 piston units that are required on the 9" rear. I think I'll be OK.

It wouldn't be considered a true project car unless it was expensive! Besides what he is building here is priceless. I wanna see a Drag Race between this thing and the other v8 build when it's all done! (shouldahadav8 I think)

Nitrous Install
The nitrous solenoids are installed and plumbing continues. The 15lb nitrous bottle rack sits on the top of the box that is in the rear seat area, over the air tank and battery. The nitrous master arm switch and purge button mount in the rear of the B&M shifter base. I'm starting off with "baby" 75 hp nozzles at first. No need to go nuts. The windshield squirter nozzles are being replaced with the purge lines to spray straight up in front of the windshield.

So, looking through the other thread on this and the beginnings of this one, this was initially supposed to be just a stock LS1 going in a rear drive HHR. I know a lot of the custom stuff would still need a lot of work, but do you think you would be done by now if you hadn't decided to beef up a few things? Or do you think you'd still be working on it?
