I plan on going with a 76mm on a 4.8, going for around 600whp/tq. Cam, tune, 50/50 meth injection, and fender exit DPs. Planning on around 16PSI. I'll be doing an LS6 intake, dual springs, and arp head studs.

Can't wait to see your progress though -

I still havent decided on my cold side piping. I don't have the platform yet either, just plans.. either OBS LS Swap, or NBS outright.

Fuel system plumbed up to the gas tank. Now the slightly harder part... to run the hard line up to the firewall, and figure out how I'm gonna make it run from the outside of the frame rail to the inside, all while keeping it one solid piece of hard line.

Step one of the conversion back to manual disc brakes completed.

Under hood portion of the power to manual brake conversion done. Just need to paint the one line to match the rest of them. Then bleed the brakes again after mounting the brake pedal rod (brake pedal rod has been installed since pic). brakes still need bled though

Bottom cut out of the "battery box cover" I had bolted down to the floor. Next step is building a box to hold the battery, cut a hole in the floor, drop it down in, weld it up, then bolt this back to the floor

Floor cut out for battery box

Some more sheet metal to build the "battery box" out of, and to make more panels for the floor so it can be closer to being done

Battery box cut out...

And formed. Just need to weld it up, then weld it into the floor
You must be registered for see images attach


And welded up and grinded down. Not perfect, but good enough. Now just gotta weld it into the floor
You must be registered for see images attach


And welded in...

And some paint on it

New gas cap/filler I've had that's gonna go on it. Most likely gonna use some round tube and build a base for it, to raise it up off the floor just slightly, and maybe at a 45° angle

Battery cable through panel connectors installed. Now I need to make and run all my battery cables, and relocate some other stuff into the empty spot next to the battery

And the race car battery relocation kit I've had, that I bought to do that with

Old homemade drivers side CB/radio antenna mount removed. And new one modified slightly and temporarily mounted in its new location on the rear bumper (where I wanted in the first place). Just gotta do the other side. And they will be getting painted, most likely black.

Another piece of the puzzle (5" exhaust tubing) to modify to work for what I want/need
You must be registered for see images attach


That should work for a color change. One down one to go.

Other one modified and temporarily mounted. Now to capt it with some plastidip like I did the other side

And both mounted to the bumper and "painted"

Cut, stretched, welded, and capped one end to use as a mounting surface for the fuel filler cap. Now just gotta grind the welds down and clean it all up, then drill/cut a hole in the center for the fuel hose to run through.

I guess that's one way to figure out, and make the angle I wanted. Lol. Chop saw wasn't big enough, and this piece is to small (length) to cut it. So now I can do it with a grinder and a cut off wheel

Done cutting and grinding the angle just right.
You must be registered for see images attach


That'll work. Just need to make the hole in the floor bigger, drill some holes to mount the fuel filler, and weld it to the floor
You must be registered for see images attach


And hole cut out bigger, and moved over to the right a little bit farther

Here's the idea I was going for when I started this new idea. May clock it 90° to the right so I flips open towards the passengers side. Or 180° so it flips down. But we'll see as I finish it

And welded in and mounted... Just need to scotch brite (or sand it) to make it not shiny. Lol
