Cool Well, she fits now

Well a little of this, a little of that and now that bad boy fits!

As some of you know, I am swapping in a 454 in place of the 307 and ran into major firewall problems.

In the end I increased the body lift a bit and as you can see made a few minor firewall mods.

My plan is to at some point go in and move the engine forward so I can go back down to the 2" body lift. This combined fix gets it where the body guy can get done, I can enjoy the truck and then when I'm ready for another project I can go in and move the engine forward.

To avoid having to move the engine forward the firewall mods would have ended up being pretty severe. I really can't see how some people are able to do a 3" body lift and light massaging on the firewall, though I know they have as I have seen pics.
