My version of the s10 swap

[BlueJeep]

Not a lot of visible progress, but progress none the less. I now have the battery mounted under the hood. I was able to mount it off the firewall and the inner fender, and get it looking pretty good. I would have liked to have it farther from the engine, but there is plenty of clearance and the hood spring clears the other side so this is where it is.





I also pulled the gas tank out and did some more welding on the frame that I was leery to do before with the tank in place. The spring perches on the rear axle were also welded up. I'm now getting ready to set up the new gears that will arrive tomorrow. Feels bad to replace 3.50 gears with 3.50 gears, but the old ones had some pretty deep rust pits in about 20% of the teeth...so here I am.
