Re: Tina, A patina 69 burb project

It`s electrical conduit i picked up from an electical suppy house. It was the perfect size to reuse the factory hose.
I removed the orginal fill once i saw the new one was good.
Sorry for the big pics

Cool paint work!
Glad to see the blue firewall instead of the black color that everyone does.

Re: Tina, A patina 69 burb project
Did you buy the hydro boost mounting bracket or make it yourself?

Re: Tina, A patina 69 burb project
Great progress! I notice you said you were using a Fbody oil pan with the ECE motor mounts. Have you tested fitted the pan yet? I tried that on my burb and had to switch to a Cadillac CTsV pan do to interference with the front crossmember.

Thanks!
No I have not test fitted yet, hope to within the next month. Thanks for the heads up, hope it's not a problem. I have been waiting on Thunder racing to ship my cam so I can assemble the engine and It was shipped yesterday so maybe I can get it back together this weekend.

If you look at my build thread I show pictures of the fitment issues with the FBody pan. I'm pretty sure you're going to have to use a different pan.

I got mine at the dealership but I bet you can probably find them on eBay also.

Re: Tina, A patina 69 burb project
Thanks Hart_Rod! I didn't want to change the oil pan twice so I ordered a CTS V pan last night. I now have an F body pan and a truck pan for sale!

Glad I could help. I just didn't want you going through what I did, . The FBody pan should sell pretty quickly. It works with nearly every other motor mount setup. If you don't have any luck on our board, post it for sale on LS1Tech, it will go quickly there.

You shouldn't have a problem selling that F-body pan on the board to somebody.
