Thanks Justin!

Justin knows this but here is a sneak peak of what is coming in the mail on Monday.

Waiting on some more PorterBuilt parts. This weekend i need to reorganize my garage so i have room for the engine install soon.

**roushinator** · 03-02-2015, 09:24 PM

So something came in to cool down this bad boy!

simplepeddler · 03-02-2015, 09:37 PM

man..............mad skills ..............

**roushinator** · 03-03-2015, 10:32 PM

This was delivered today from Porterbuilt

slowcpe · 03-03-2015, 11:44 PM

Just read through your build. Wow it's really progressed! Going to be a slick truck when done.

enduroride · 03-04-2015, 09:02 AM

Roushinator, nice work on the truck, I live out in Prairieville, Id like to come by to see your progress in person one day if I could !
Keep up the great work

Number98 · 03-04-2015, 09:14 AM

I know I am late to the party but this is a really cool build!

Justin@EntropyRad · 03-04-2015, 01:18 PM

It puts the motor in the truck, or it gets flamed

Molberg · 03-09-2015, 08:54 PM

Holy $h*t!... Gonna be a beast. (sub'd) I like that reverse C notch for your fuel filler on the topside of frame... Might borrow that idea. Great stuff bro.

oldgreen69 · 03-10-2015, 11:26 PM

Nice score on the motor, will be watching as it comes together! Gonna be a cool stepper!

**roushinator** · 03-13-2015, 08:40 PM

Getting ready for the move...

**roushinator** · 03-14-2015, 07:13 PM

I got my PB radiator core mounts and front cross member coated and installed this afternoon....

Oh notice that took my steering off.... Decided to go rack and pinion. And you can see my new sheet metal motor mount pedestals

orngsikL · 03-17-2015, 11:33 PM

i need to come check this out!

Low68 · 03-21-2015, 01:34 AM

Awesome build! Subscribed. This should be a quick truck with that motor.

**roushinator** · 03-21-2015, 04:35 PM

Step 1 of the engine install is done. The cab has been removed.

Justin@EntropyRad · 03-23-2015, 11:33 AM

Ryan..did I miss what color you were going with?

Justin...

I was thinking about something like this.. Maybe with a white top.

Justin@EntropyRad · 03-23-2015, 11:49 AM

Hugger orange, or more of a Victory red?

slowcpe · 03-23-2015, 06:59 PM

I like the hockey stripe

**roushinator** · 03-25-2015, 07:24 AM

Got my steering in yesterday. Waiting on the mounting bracket.

**roushinator** · 03-30-2015, 08:18 PM

Almost ready to go. I determined that i will need to use the Holley LS brackets for the Alternator and AC compressor. I got to remove the oil cooler to fit the motor mounts. I should not need it according to Rob and if i want later on i can install an external one. I have a plug and some tools coming in to remove and install. I had to buy an 17mm allen wrench socket and a 34mm socket. I can then install the motor mounts and then Cadillac oil pan. The engine should go in soon! Oh and my bracket finally came in for my rack and pinion.

**roushinator** · 04-05-2015, 05:28 PM

Got some work done and created some more... LOL

Installed the No Limit Rack and Pinion. But thanks to my Louisiana public school education i misread the instructions and drilled the hole for the steering shaft in the wrong spot. I need to get that welded up and i will re-drill it in the right spot this time. My motor mounts need to be in the back two holes not the front two. That threw off my measurements. LOL...
