E.C.P turns beast into a MONSTER

How to turn a beast into a MONSTER . Many of you have been watching the progress on Nik's 07 CTSV and have been witness to just how potent these sedans can be . In this segment we will be building a fully forged blower 402 with Trick Flow heads / Monster clutch along with some new Kooks headers and a few other tricks to squeeze the juice of of this baby.

Here are a pictures and video to start things off

So it begins with a litle mood music:



Hood off and ready to get at it .



Rob getting the Yella Terras off to be used on the new Trick Flow 225cc



Here I am unbolting the heads, so easy I can do it with my eyes closed



Down to the block and ready be plucked.



Parts all neat and stored .



Stay tuned as we get ready to pull the trans and engine :

Thx

Manny@E.C.P

I almost started giggling in anticipation when I saw the title of the new thread under "new posts". The music in the video topped if off. HA! That was great.

I can't wait to see how it turns out. I bet Cadillac never thought they would see that much power in one of their street cars.

Could I suggest "I can't drive 55" as the music for the next episode. I can't wait till April to have car on your set.
