My TMI sport bench arrived last week and I installed it yesterday. Interior is almost done, door panels are next on the to do list.

Thanks!
Wheels are from Wheel Vintiques, fronts are 15x8 and rears are 15x10, I custom ordered them with the correct offset to fit a squarebody.

Not sure if you answered this yet, but who's manifolds are those? Can't really make out the name. Also, do you have any pics of what you did with the exhaust after the engine bay down pipe?

Trailblazer SS drivers side manifold and Trick Turbo 99-06 Silverado manifold on the passenger side. I can take a photo of the exhaust and post it.

Installed a Mighty Mouse PCV catch can this weekend.

How's the A/C doing with the condenser behind the I/C? I'm in the process of a turbo 6.0 in my '77 CC Dually.

I had planned to go with Tejas Steelworks mounts (bought them already) but space limitations up front may make me go to a mount like the DDs you used (which, in turn, screws up using the factory truck A/C location).

It's always something.....

mrods72 · 09-05-2018, 09:02 AM

I finally installed the vintage air evaporator and lines last week and will be testing it soon.
I am using Dirty Dingos low mount ac bracket with the mini sanden compressor, it’s in the stock truck location and fits tighter to the block.

Yeah. I may have to back up and punt on the mounts. I REALLY wanted to use the Tejas stuff but it moves the engine forward 3". Great for naturally aspirated but takes up valuable space for a turbo/intercooler setup.
