Awesome build! I've taken a lot of notes between this thread and a few others. I'm still in the planning phases but the motor has been ordered. Any interest in making another gas pedal mount when you make yours? I can't wait to see it finished

Thanks Daniel. I haven't finished the fuel lines on this one yet. But if you look at the Burb, you can see what I did there. I'll post some pictures when I get that part done.

Thanks! Let me get the final version of the pedal adapter built and I'll see what I can do.

No problem. It's no rush on my end. The only thing I have is a engine and trans at the moment. I still have a mountain of other parts to research and buy so it'll be months before I actually start the swap. If it's a issue I completely understand. Thanks

Very nice work on the pedal. Too bad it only works for 2005 up. I had to hack my 2003 HERE pedal to make it work.

jrdv · 07-17-2013, 01:30 PM

Looking great! I like the six pack holder.

The caddy tranny cover swap is nice. I noticed when I did my mock up that it does hang a little low!

If you would hurry up and finish yours, you could take a vacation back to NM and help me finish mine!

Thanks John. I think you'll like the Caddy pan, it is almost level with the bottom of the fram rails. I probably will need a vacation by time I'm done,

. I didn't get much this weekend, but played around with my new phone camera...

Nice eye candy x 2.

big_al_71 · 07-23-2013, 09:42 AM

Rob I just got caught up in your thread and man I tell you the truck with that modern powertrain has got to be a delight to drive it. I know how it is to drive these trucks with a built old chool motor and it gets old after a few hours this is definetly a want to do next for "Sylvester" Get caught up on all your builds so you can help the big guy with my swap.

Sounds like a plan,

Tranny mount is welded up and bolted in. So motor and tranny are installed and now I can work on fine tuning everything else,

Wiring looks the same. Call John a Speartech, I'm sure he'll know the answer.

.....

. I took part of a CPP mount and cut the ends off. Then I had some metal bent for the C-channel part because I didn't like the mount just bolting to the bottom of the frame. Then I just welded new tabss on the end of the bar. This made it easier to adjust to fit my application better.

Sorry, I meant the mount its self, not the cross-member.

Gotchya, it's an Energy Suspension poly mount. I took it off of my Turbo 350 before I sold it.

I got the AC evaporator installed. Now I need to do the hoses and then condensor.

Very nice Rob.

You bringing it over for Cruisin the Coast?
