Oh and i already have the 5.3 but need to check it over good before i call it good. |

Re: project 62
PICS!!!!!!!!!!
Ok here is a pic of my saved scrap ;) http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...813_200823.jpg Here is another deal im tossing up.. i got the HVAC box out of the truck also, controls, wiring and all if i decide to do it but im thinking of putting it in the truck but will need to work the firewall to make it look even decent and it takes up some space on the pass side feet area. I know if i can put AC in it then it who cares about foot comfort, right?? :lol: Im kind of stuck because im not sure where the engine is going to go yet (engine bay, right? ) :lol: without the mounts in. Or should i just shut up and redo the firewall and do it??? :lol: http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...813_200901.jpg |
Re: project 62
Going to be too tight for the box in there so im going to stick with the vintage air that i have.

I especially like that slick truck setting out in the street. :metal: |
Re: project 62
Ok cool
Yeah that is a slick ride for sure :metal: |
Re: project 62
Well thanks to Billy for coming by and giving me a hand i have some pics to post for ya!!!
http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...814_183334.jpg http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...817_182221.jpg Made some engine mounts, not done yet but you get the idea ;) http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...815_102647.jpg http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_134753.jpg Still have to add a gusset and make sure they are strong enough Going to have to find some headers to work or find a build your own kit so i can make sure that they will work http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_111252.jpg http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_111226.jpg These are the style of ones i came across that may look like they will work but i need to see them standing up verses laying down to tell.. Headers http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_141140.jpg http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_141131.jpg Its taller than normal because the oil pan its the ground and the header issue, plus id like to be able to pull the pan if i ever need to and not have to pull the engine out.. May need to find an F body oil pan to make sure i dont set it down and crush the pan, a 1/2 in bolt may have meant game over for the pan :lol: http://i276.photobucket.com/albums/k...818_140624.jpg |
Re: project 62
