Re: Owen's C10

I like it! I read on IG you had to modify some stuff since it didn't work with your truck motor. What exactly did you have to change?

whenever I've swapped to an aftermarket intake the truck injectors never work because they're taller, and the plastic cups on the tips won't let the injector sit fully in the bosses so you gotta remove the caps, and then the stands that hold the fuel rails on are too tall so I had to shorten them and drill new holes...now you could spend $500- 600 and buy new car injectors and do it that way, but I don't know why the aftermarket can't make stuff more "truck friendly"?

That looks great. Where did you pull the engine wiring through the firewall?
