Re: LS1 Bagged 52 Chevy 3100 Build

After everything was welded and hanging on its own I had to address the clearance issue between the downpipe and the frame. If you remember I had cut and angled the downpipe just to get it inside the frame rail. But now I have to take in consideration engine flex and vibration so I am notching the frame a little for a little more clearance. I took tubing and cut it in half to make a nice radius for around the exhaust. Check it out. And like everything else I will be cleaning it up really nice right before paint

Re: LS1 Bagged 52 Chevy 3100 Build

Got my air & AN fuel lines ran, however I didn’t get a picture after I had them mounted to the frame using clamps instead of my camo duct tape haha. Also I decided to run braided line the whole way instead of using hard line. Has anybody had any problems using braided line for the whole thing?

Also finished up my steering shaft, and made a support to keep everything lined up and working smoothly. Im pretty happy with the way everything turned out

Re: LS1 Bagged 52 Chevy 3100 Build

All looks good. One thing on a maintenance stand point is, can you get to your valves once the cab is on?

Any way I could get a parts list for what this is made up of? I'm about to make mine for my LS/S10 3100 truck and have an idea but would like to compare it to someone that has done it.

Bagged3100,

The truck is looking great! I have a question about your wheels. Are these 20" wheels? I love the look of them!
