Deja Blu Build Thread

New member here, decided to do a build thread even though I am well into it at this point and didn't document alot of the start of it. It's a 70' cab and stepper bed with a 67/68 clip, Porterbuilt rear half, Accuair system. Powered by a 6.3L LSX (5.8 punched and stroked) with MSD Atomic EFI and LS2 intake backed up by a beefed 4L65E. Electrical system is by ISIS powering a Vintage Air system and Dakota digi guages. The paint will be Mica Blue w matte clear after we finish w the body work. I own a powder coating shop in metro Atlanta so progress is a little slow but has picked up some momentum lately, were just about to start the wiring. I'll post up as much of the progress as I can.

Great start. We are going to have twins. I have the same wheels, painting it blue and doing a LS swap. I'm subscribed.

Got the Atomic EFI installed and mostly connected along with the coils today. Just a few weeks away from hearing it run for the first time.

Re: Deja Blu Build Thread

I'm not very good at keeping a build thread, I'm missing a few months. Getting close to being on the streets w it now.
