Re: LT1 GenV swap

Low side a/c line assembled and needs to be crimped. The ac crimper I have doesn't have #12 reduced barrier dies so I need to get a shop to take care of that and then the a/c is done!
I reused the low side hose from the 2015, way more flexible than standard barrier hose.



Got side tracked on another idea, and looks slick!





More than likely going to paint the emblem black to match the one on the cab trim. Was looking for a smooth flat center cap for a subtle mod to accent the brake upgrade.

Tried to scrape off the orange sticker but it was a paint of some sort.. little acetone took the orange right off.. wonder if OE are the same?
