Re: "Geronimo" 54' 3100 LS built in PA

1-18 Monday, not much to report, didn't work but a few hours on the truck this week. Got headers and I'm happy with them, seem like they will clear no matter how high or low the engine is. I ordered up some poly bushings and DOM to make my engine mounts. I tossed on the only trans I have just to get a "ballpark" on things. I'm waiting for the drop blocks to show up for the rear then I'll level the front and get on dialing in the engine placement. I'll toss cab back on for that.

In the rear, I haven't finalized the leaf springs quite yet. So I started on the one side. I used the plasma to cut the circle out of the frame, then welded in the tubing and put the bushing in.

Finally found a decent deal on an ash tray for the dash, I'll have to do some fabbing as the back of the dash is jacked up and the ash tray has nothing to pivot on.
