well.. here is the skinny. My friend and i have started a new setup on the mounts. it is weird to explain so as soon as they are done. i will post pics. As for clearance, to make it easier and less streefull on both of us.. we decided to recess the firewall. And cover the hole with sheetmetal. so far minor cosmetic work is still happening, but the mojority of the work is going into getting it running. The operation is mainly being help up by the radiator and tranny cooler... as soon as i have the funds to buy them. it will fly!

here are a few new pics.. and some old ones

MORE TO COME check back regularly!
thanks
anthony

well when you are not workin you are on luvtruck.. and if not that then you are messing with LUV's or PUP's or what have you!

i have school.. work.. sports... parties

ya know!

but the mounts are fabbed.... just need placing and some welding. the front support is all cut up to fit the radiator.

so hopefully some updated pics will be inline for the end of the week.

neil... i wish i had you there sometimes for this build.. cuz shit man.. i dont know how the hell you got this mofo to fit like it did!!

oh by the way neil.. did lee run a flex-fan or electric?

oh and also.. i got ahold of one of those small distrubutors with a coil.. fo free.. that gave us some more clearance!
