After looking up the corvette pedal, it does look like a better match and appears it has more range then the Camaro. It doesn't have much of a range of motion. They are faulty cheap too. I quickly cruised through that build thread. You got some awesome projects !

Shifter or adapter

Additional fuse box/wiring

Lots of other things I'm probably missing, that's just off the top of my head. Plan, plan, and plan some more, then leave extra time and room in your budget for the inevitable unexpected.
Gauges will be down the road, I'll be going with A Dakota set. I will be upgrading my radiator with the entropy one with dual electric fans. As far as drive shaft more then likely I'll just either shorten the one piece one I have now or might even order a custom one from the drive shaft shop, depending on budget.

I most certainly forgot about that! I'll add it to the list. Thanks everyone.

As far as the alternator goes, it's currently located low on the driver side, does anyone know if it has to be relocated up high?
