Re: Project: "just a little rust repair, turned LS2 swap"

Love the truck man! What are you running for back spacing and off set for the front and rear rims? Are you running mono spring and shocks front and rear or coil overs?
How did you clear the factory C4 rack? Ill double check your build thread but to me it looks like you pulled the engine back to where the lower pulley is right behind it?
Thanks,

Just got your PM sent back! Sorry it took so long man I just didn't see it.
But yes on the rack we did move the engine back, I actually ended up sending the rack to Turn One where they relocated the lines for me to clear the harmonic balancer.

Was gonna go. Didn't though. People that went said you were first thing they saw when they walked in. Knew you'd get hardware there.

I was at the Piston Power Show on Friday evening and wondered if you were there. Never spotted you but I guess you were front and center by Saturday AM!
