Thanks for positive replies guys :metal:

The old street tires dont stand a chance at 50mph and very low boost lol :lol:

Its coming together, the bodywork/paint and suspension are going to get worked on this winter. Going to drive it like it is till winter really sets in.

I scaled the pickup at work and its right at 3700# with me in it (150#).... not to shabby! Im guessing itll be around 3900# completed!

Winter plans:

Coilovers
slight drop
Shortened rearend with some serious meat out back :sumo:
Finish paint

little vid as it sits now...

71chevystep4x4-
I'm just finishing up a 72 4wd and was curious what you ended up with for driveline angles? I had to slope my engine and tranny back at 6 degrees to get the transfer case to fit. And what headers are those? To keep thread on topic, here is a picture of my LS2.

Thanks.

I noticed that my links are broken for my pics earlier in this thread.

Glad to see some other guys finally going turbo LS in these trucks.

Where did you get those wheel well and battery covers. I like the nice clean look of it.

Wheel wells are stock and I installed the battery terminals which I purchased from Speedway and I have also seen them on Ebay.

Are you talking about the AC compressor bracket, because all the rest are stock corvette brackets. Kwik bracket for corvette LS1.

First off let me say that this truck is PERFECT on so many levels. I love love love the design and execution here. Was hoping for some more details on your a/c compressor bracket. Am I correct that you had to notch the stock bracket for adapter plates? I've heard this discussed a few times but never seen any pictures of it done. Thanks in advance.
