Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Since I held off on welding the u-joint to the shaft I decided to fill the holes from the steering shaft mock up and the extra engine mount holes from the factory. Cleaned it up quite a bit.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
I forgot to mention that I was impressed with the way you handled the steering shaft through the top frame section. Most would have been stymied with the possible resolution ... Nicely done.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Hey man, I know you're busy and everything but if you have anytime I'd love to come hang out in your garage. I still don't have a truck of my own to build but it's always a learning experience just watching someone work. I know very little about fabrication or welding but if I can help in anyway at all even if it's just holding something in place or moving something, I'd be happy to.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
So, just tying up loose ends from a while back. I welded a few threaded couplers together to get the sway bar to clear the steering linkage. I had to make them a little higher to make sure they cleared lock to lock, bags all the way up and all the way down.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
I got some parts in the mail yesterday. The steering column bearings came in, but you guys probably don't need a pic of those! Here's the the exciting stuff. It's a Holley mid-rise efi intake. I'm going to go through all of my parts and see what I have and what's missing to build this engine asap. It will be a few months till the time and money come together but I've got plenty to do till then.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
That intake will definitely fill the void left from the 'better looking' LS1/2/3 intakes while much more pleasing to the eye vs the truck units.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
Yeah, it's a lot about looks and making the engine compartment not look empty. It's also ideal for power between 2000-6600, which exactly matches my cam. Should be a great combo for the street.

Got a wheel for the right price that I think might work. I also started the mock up on the headers.

Forever Sharp- https://fssteeringwheels.com
Seems to be pretty good quality and great prices compared to some other half wrap wheels I've seen.

Re: Shrunken66Stroker's build thread.
I have this wood one for mine. Just have to buy the adapter & horn kit.
![]() ![]() Side note: Don't buy a wood one with the rivets. They are just stickers and can peel off. Unless they are covered with thicker clear coat.
