Default BobtailedSnail's LSx MS6 and N/T Nova

Decided to resurrect my account a few weeks back. Some of you know who I am. Not quite OG, but not a Noob.

Trip down memory lane:
Learned a ton from this place when I first got my MS6 about 6 years ago. I built my first top mount kit from what I learned here. A few years back I got the idea of doing a compound turbo build on the 6, ended scraping that idea. Turbo tech was advancing and undermined the purpose of the build.
Ended up building the motor, doing a HX40 top mount setup, PI, etc. I lost interest and never got the car's tuned finished. I began parting the car out with what I considered a brilliant idea.

In the mean time:
I acquired a 69 Chevy Nova than had been sitting on a trailer for 3 years after the owner passed away, raced it one season then broke it down and changed the setup. Put new slicks on it
She ran a best of 9.77, all I did was change the oil in the motor. Lol. 468BBC with a glide

Pulled the motor and trans and sold it off

Acquired a new motor on CL and after a few weeks a decision was made to go Twin turbo. Sent the car to 16W Fabworks and Anthony knocked it out of the park on the turbo mounting and intercooler.

Got rid of the old school rake and slapped some radials on it.

The car's name is The Soul Shaker. It's a N/T car so don't ask what it runs lol.

On to the mazda's current state.
Used a small block I had in the shop since that and the LS are similar lengths.
troubled81 and Micha like this.
