No cutouts yet, but within the week. I did fire it up with the open headers, and I can tell it doesn't have a problem breathing now, .

I also picked up a painted steel bumper so, we're are still going to try and keep the same theme.... How's your truck coming?

, in due time, . I still have a few minor things to finish first. Today, I installed a new lower panhard bar bracket that I got from NoLimit. It allowed me to lower the mounting point on the driver's side, thus giving me clearance for my aluminum rear end cover.

Re: 68 S/C update.....

I must say your truck looked wicked sitting in that parking lot Under that light last night. I could hear it picking a fight with the other cars that drove by.

Seriously though it's looking good!

Yeah pretty cool, huh? The QTP's work really seal really well and were pretty easy to install.

You should have called, but I know how hard it is to break away when you're on vacation. How's your truck coming?

**

On another note, I installed a set of GMC Pauls door seals. Very simple installation, about 20 mins. Now I'm waiting for them to break in so I don't have to slam the door to get it closed. The next thing will be a trip to a dyno tuner, hopefully within the next couple of weeks, .
