Keep up the good work.


I was able to get the engine fully installed without any firewall modifications though i did have to set it back about 6" further towards the firewall than the "off the shelf" S10 LS Conversion motor mounts allowed.

In other news, I started on the boiled linseed oil/mineral spirits application (70%/30%) for the front clip and cab. I still need to figure out my bed mounting situation but we're moving right along on getting everything re-situated on the S10 chassis!

Waiting on the shortened driveshaft to come back also.
