UPS left this today

Can't wait to put it in. Went with 4.11 gears and a Eaton posi. The Gear vendors will bring it down to a 3.20 final drive ratio. The best of both worlds.

Awesome my friend, I was going to get a GV unit...but opted for my 700r4 instead (cost was an issue). BTW, where is this money tree at?!

Phantom grill looks great as well!

Line locs are cool, where are you going to mount the assembly? How about the switch...shifter?

I like the knobs with the switches but I have a B&M pro-ratchet and can't really hide the wire anywhere. I think I'm gonna run a switch to the column behind the steering wheel. I'm also considering an electric shifter selenoid for the pro-ratchet so I can keep my hands on the wheel when drag racing....same type of switch.
