Thanks Alan, I made the fuel line extra long for first time start up, it's not even tightened yet. Just wanted to leave enough line for final routing. I will probably run it outside the frame rail on the first start up. :smoke:

That will be a great day, of course we will never be finished :lol:

The front crossover is in place which includes the steam line. The rear ports are blocked off if I remember correct, I will look again tonight but I'm pretty sure they are blocked off.

Man, I LOVE those shocks. Then I saw the price tag. :lol:

Top notch, this truck will be so fun to drive!

Installed temp sensor from dakota gauges in rear port on the passenger side. Left stock sensor in stock location which will allow the ECU to control the fan.

Waiting to get the radiator back from shop, then it will be time to fire the puppy up!

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride
 

Oh sweetness, you are close!!

I hope the amount of time, money, and effort you have put into this is surpassed only by the satisfaction you get when you finally get to drive it!!

And a few compliments from pretty girls wont hurt either !!!

I am still a loooooong ways off from turning a key on mine!

Re: Mesquite 1966 C10 - LS3 W/Air Ride
 

Drive shaft came in today, drivetrain is complete. Should get the radiator back this week.
