Thanks again, Jerry. I'm going back in with a 351w and I see he's already got that up for grabs.

:D Alot of mock up with my nasty sheet metal and hopefully picking up another truck(with good parts)next weekend. So let's look at some pic's
Preliminary spark plug wire routing
Image

a little fab work out of a couple air breather snouts
Image
Image
Thoughts are a little ram-air induction through a K&N into a sealed stock air breather...hence the mock up...to see where I can go with it. K&N parts are ordered and on the way.
Also wanted to check clearence of radiator to my pully and fan set up
Image
Image
Might be in the market for a new shroud or longer spacer :hmm:
Image

Got my new shifter...needs a litlle tweaking and after alot of tweaking....I got the linkage hooked up
