New Life for a truck passed its prime

[flattopwill]

its coming along Very quick. looks good. i wanna line up

is this an OBS war or can i bring my 08 CC?

im mounting everything on the drivers side fire wall an fender well. im oing to depin the OBDII connector, drill a 1/2" hole an use a rubber bushing to cushion the wiring then seal it on the inside. im hoping to get the tranny lines finished monday along with the wiring/oil/filter/tranny fluids/tranny cooler/AC bracket from Josh Powers has come out VERY nice. i didnt PC but it came out just fine

we need more pics of this build lol chop chop.

oh what exhaust are you running or did i miss that?
you should throw some 3:73s in that thing an i think youll be a lot happier

Yes, I am tryin to get it done as quickly as I can while I still have time. This week was spring break for me and I only worked three 12 hour shifts so I had a little time. I even skipped sleepin a couple days. I'm tryin to get it done quickly while not cutting corners.

Hell ya we can line em up and run whatcha brung. I think my truck will be fun to drive but I don't think itll be very fast.

I too am mounting everything on the drivers side fender. ECM, new fuse block, and relays will all be right there together. I'd like to make some sort of cover for it especially since the tuned ECM Nelson sent me was old, dirty, and grungy lookin.

I will try to take more pics. I was real camera happy when I first started but now I just wanna get it done lol.

I don't really want to spend a lot of money on exhaust right now so I think I'm just going to use the single in/dual out Flowmaster that was on it before with some 3 inch pipe. Dump it under the bed before the axle. I may change it later since it seems kind of a waste to run single exhaust behind long tube headers. I think next check I'm going to add an exlectric cutout to make it sound faster than it is lol.

Ya I agree I will probably want 3.73s but I m
just scared of what it will do to my top end. I wanna be able to take it on road trips (hoping to make an appearance at the ls1truck shootout next year) and ride the interstate with ease. High up on the mod list is a TruTrac so when I do that I'll probably put in different gears
