Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Your truck is looking great! I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure we stopped in that Logstore on the way to Tenkiller last spring.

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
I like your shop as much as the truck. Wish I had that much room.

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Summitflier, thanks! It is nice having that room for sure!
lolife99, does it actually hit anywhere or is it just super close? I would like to keep the low hump if I can. Thanks!

I just always install a high hump with TH400, and the 4L80E has to have a bigger case. I even used one in my red '69 with a TH350. (I plan to install an overdrive trans at a later date). My opinion it just gives you more room to work when laying on your back under the truck. (easier access to everything)

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
I had to use a High hump with my 4L60E on my truck. I have my engine pretty far back against the firewall too. I think if you run a 4L80E you will have no choice but to run a High hump.

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
I was just going by another thread that said if the motor was in the forward position a 4L80E cleared just fine. It was close but cleared. Looks like I will have to mock it up.
If anyone has an engine installed in the forward location with a 4L80E please chime in, but it doesn't sound too promising. Thanks for the help guys!

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Finally building the 496 for the pickup. The chrome pan came with the truck so I thought, what the heck!

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Finally getting some time to work on the truck again. I had to take a few years off when we moved and started a new job.

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Looking good. I like the Nova too. How quick is it?

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Thanks! My Nova was my first ever car. I have had it since 1986.
It's pretty quick, it's a grudge style car so I don't really post times. Thanks! Chris

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
The real question is, did you finally choose a color?

Re: Project "CSautosports 69"
Haha, I am pretty sure I am going with 1971 510 Medium blue.
Now to find someone to paint it. I had been talking to screaminchevypickup about painting it for me but he seems to be MIA from the board. I will probably give him a call since I am so close to where his shop is. I will have it ready to go to a painter very soon. Probably as early next week. Thanks, Chris
