THANKS! The wheels did rub on big dips so i had to cut out the inner fender and relocate the battery. i rewelded and reinforced the inner fender and i can bag it now if i wanted to.

Re: got a new truck!!!!

Can we see what you did with the inner fenders? Thanks ahead of time. Looks sick with that hood. I really like the stock front end on these trucks. I may trade my 91 'Burb clip for a stock one soon.

Re: got a new truck!!!!

THANX ROLLIN! well i have been collecting parts and saving up for a while and i sold the 383/700r4 combo to a buddy. now I'm putting a 5.3l with a .580/.590 custom grind cam, ls6 heads milled and ported, camaro racing headers, and a pypes x pipe set up. I will be running the stock harness and computer. I will run the stock 4l60e. I am running the corvette fuel filter, and all gm fuel lines that i got with the engine. I will make an inline fitting to adapted the steam line and coolant sensor, tap the block off plate for the oil sender, and stock radiator. My truck had a 700r4 in it so i dont think i have to cut the driveshaft, but we'll see. I'm going to put the new dash i got in while she's down. both engine and trans have 10k verified miles from a wrecked 2007 pickup. I'll have more pics as i get customer vehicles out of the way while working on this.
