Your building my dream truck! Any other updates?

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Thanks for sharing your pics....I have a similar build. I have a 72 C10 Shortbed with a 2000 Camaro SS LS1 with auto trans. All of the body is off and getting painted. I'm currently working on the frame. There's not a lot of header options. I think the Doug Thorley's that you have are the best option.

I noticed you still have the shifter in the stock location, do you have any pictures of where the shifter ends up inside the cab? I'm doing an LS3 swap in my truck and will be putting a manual tranny in. I was planning to go with an RS600 but it seems like Keisler isn't terribly eager to do business so I'm thinking of going the T-56 magnum route from a different supplier as it seems like there are too many horror stories out there with the TKO's.

Beautiful build! Man I wish I had my chassis parts powdercoated.. it really makes everything stand out

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Nice build, love the ls1/6 speed combo.

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
nice build, is the shifter going to be under the front seat. looks way back in the pics. i like the finish of your frame, i had mine powdercoated in a smooth gloss and it was the worst mistake i made.

if you breathe wrong on the gloss finish it scratches. you have to be way to carefull during assembly. go with a semi gloss finish when you coat it or it will take decades to reassemble it without scratching it. i went with a super wet black, bad mistake.
