Scott,

I'm curious about one aspect of your LS9 project: are you planning to keep the dry sump oiling system, or will you be converting the motor to wet sump?

It seems to me, if you were keeping the dry sump, you could lower the entire drivetrain a couple of inches, which might buy you a little more room at the front of the motor. I assume you already have CV jointed half-shafts, which would make lowering the ZF a bit easier. You might even be able to lower the motor enough, so that the TB fits into the hump between the seats!

Lowering the drivetrain would also drastically improve your CG. If I recall, Jack DeRyke has lowered the drivetrain in his Pantera by a small amount.
