72 K10 LSX swap I'm one step closer

Ok guys I'm close to pulling the trigger to make an LS happen

What I'm dealing with for those unfamiliar with my situation I have a 72 K10 long bed. I have basically a brand new th350 trans so I want to use this trans and I really don't do any freeway or over 60 mph driving so OD is not a priority. I want drive ability and reliability.

PI know I need a front crossmember. Who's is best!? I'm leaning towards the dirty dingo. I want no more than a 2" lift when all is said and done.

Another thing I have seen referenced is the close proximity to the firewall. Is this an issue how or will I experience this?

,fuel tank I would like to just use a factory square body blazer type in frame tank as I feel it would be most cost effective. If there is a simpler bolt in option please share.

Again thanks for the support and please share links I may have missed to builds

Here is a link to my 69 K10 build. Beware, it is picture heavy and very long. Not sure it will have everything you are looking for... but it will have some of it I am sure.
