I had the drive shaft shortened and balanced. I'm also working on plumbing the fuel lines. The Supercharger has a single feed, so I'm going to use a Corvette fuel filter/pressure regulator.

Question on the driveshaft. What changes did you make to it to connect to the 4L60E?

I had it shortened and the tranny yoke for the 4L60E added. I also had them balance it.

They were free, sorta. I bought the old strong arms that had the shock tab on the bottom. When I called and complained about them hitting, the gave me the kit free. It took about 3 hours to cut the old tabs off and to weld the new ones on, .

Wow!

I don't see any trim holes? Maybe I missed it, but will they be added later or airbrushed?
