Re: project "SHORTHORN"

i cant decide if i want to run the tall tranny hump or convert to small hump.
Will the big block fit with the small hump? I just prefer small hump makes cab feel a little more roomy.
Let me know what u guys think thanks

Re: project "SHORTHORN"

Looking good!
In regards to the large vs small hump with the big block, I have been told that as long as your cab mounts are in good shape it'll work with the small hump. Just a little tight.

Re: project "SHORTHORN"

I debated on what color to paint my truck it was either black or orange. With the help of my 3 year old son we went with orange. i also could not decide on single stage or base clear but my local paint shop talked me into base clear and im glad he did anyway here's more pics
