Hello to all. I am going to post some pics of my build. I am currently about to start sanding and painting Fram and crossmember. I will post pictures of prior and or current and will make a parts list as well.

NOT INSTALLED YET:
5.3 ls
4L60E
early classics crossmember
Early classics ls mounts and towers
Wait4meperformance tune and moded harness
painted valve covers by urs truly
current performance ceramic coated headers
classic parts body and radiator mounts

ORIGINAL:
inline 6
3 spd column shift

I had to remove the trans crossmember that was riveted in. Let me start with that is a horrible design however nothing a air Hamer and chisel couldnt take care of. I also pulled the front clip to make easier access. I am currently looking for power brakes and power steering box as well as a stock auto steering column. As of now this is where I am.
