Couple of quick shots with the motor and tranny installed. The factory fuel lines look like they were designed to go there, :). I'm going to switch from dual lines to a single line due to a small "upgrade" I'm adding, :D.

I also started installing the rear discs using, Glock's brackets. I'm running them on the front side of the axle just like Frizzle Fry (monkey see, monkey do :)). I still haven't got all my parts in yet, so I will probably have to finish them the next time I come in (March). Hopefully, the prototype headers will be in by then too. :metal:

Well, I spent a little over two weeks at home, but due to a jaw surgery (broken on both sides and moved forward, :(), I didn't get much done. I was saving this as a suprise, but I might as well throw some pictures of it on here now since it was the only progress I made. I'm hoping for 450-500 HP with the new addition.........

Answer to the second question, I brought one to many projects home, :lol:. Actually, it was a scheduled surgery to repair my bite. It's something that needed to be done for a long time, but I just never got around to doing it. However, my bite was getting worse, so I decided now was the time. The surgery itself was not so bad, I've been in very little pain. I did have some swelling but, the worse part ended up being a virus I caught after I got home. R |
Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
WOW, getting sick when your jaw is wired shut would be the worst. I hope it wasn't a stomach virus.

that supercharger looks nearly perfect... only way it could be better is if it was under the hood of my 05 Tahoe!.... mind if I ask what the going rate for a setup like that is?

Got some body work done this last week. The entire body is in hi-build and ready for block sanding. First pictures are in epoxy. With any luck, maybe it will be painted by the next time I go home, :ito:.

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)
I am so glad to see progress on the burb. Take your time to get the body straight. I can't wait to see some color on this thing! When you get done, this build will be the one to set the bar for other to follow. Keep up the good work.
