Not too much, but should be in the next few weeks, since parts will be coming back from paint.

Wheels are about ready to ship, then we have to put some Toyos on them, and get them on the truck. I think the wheels came out sweet!

Not sure what harness he is running.. But the black box to the right is Dakota Digital's control box where you make the connections.

Yep, LS engine, and is a 5.3 out of a truck. We put a cam and convertor in it as well. The black box is the Dakota Digital for the gauge cluster.

Re: Pro Performance : '68 SWB Build
I have the same combo in my truck, and it put down 300 HP to the wheels. Can't remember the torque though.

Nice. I'm putting a 5.3 in mine as well that's why I asked. I haven't picked a cam yet, hoping to find one with lots of torque down low so i can use the stock 4l80e converter

Re: Pro Performance : '68 SWB Build
I would have to check with Pro Dyno to see if they have the numbers still from the dyno tune. You will like having a cam. For me, it was for the sound too, as I wanted a more hot rod sound vs. a 2006 Tahoe sound.
