With the help from the members in the Lsx section of the forum, I was able to make my own mount for the stock GM fuel pump.

Installed the front inner fenders. I am really glad I decided to paint them red.

Your engine compartment looks awesome Mark, I love all the red. I couldn't wait to see an update on this truck, I love it.

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Thanks for all of the compliments guys! here are some clearer pictures (I didn't realize that the pictures from my iPad are so unclear)
This weekend I have been working on putting the bed together. I have decided to use the metal floor for now, and I will eventually use the wood floor down the road.

Very nice work on the gas tank.
Red inner fenders do look great. |

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
Hi! Very Nice Build!!! I was wondering if your LS engine was a return type fuel system or a returnless system? I found an article on one of the Vette forums that showed how they converted the sending unit to a returnless system, here's the pictures, might help if this is what your'e gonna run.

Re: Started my first frame off - 72 SWB LS1, 6-spd manual
IDK, but here's the tank ring install:
http://transamcountry.com/community/...?topic=56613.0 I'd like to see what kinda regulator dealio they did- most guys just do the Vette filter/regulator on the frame and a short return line (like I'm fixin' to).

Unless you pulled the regulator out of the 4th gen F-body fuel sender, you dont need the Corvette regulator/filter
