Oh the memories. I have a a '90 with a 94 LT1 in it. If you are planning a V8, and emissions are a problem (I live in Cali), I'd avoid the LT1. The stock crate 350 runs better than the LT1 does. Go figure.
Best of luck!

I'm hoping by Sept 1st.... Got both sliders on, could have left a little more metal on, If this is my biggest mistake, I'll be happy. Passenger side flare on, have to powder coat more hardware to mount the other one.

I would like to, should be complete by then. I'm not sure I would be "allowed" on top of season tickets. But I am asking....

That's cool. We have a 50K in Tyler, TX on October 13th. We're hashing out plans for that weekend now. Not sure if you were joking or not on maybe grabbing a bite sometime.
If it happens I wouldn't hold you to a wager; I've been following your QB controversy. (Firing first shot...haha.)

Nothing done on the build, as my butt is parked down here in Laredo for the next few days...

Off for 10 days and only allowed to work on the Jeep for a day....not fair!!!
Got a few lingering things done like rear flair, adjust tub and a few other small things. Since the vent was covered over, I had to find a way to cover remaining holes. I had to grind down the edges and louvers in the vent cover, prime and paint and powder coat the hardware.

An oven on the deck? You're taking patio kitchens to the next level. Classy.

Starter my second rendering of the dash, Got all the hood stuff mounted...
Been wanting to build a toolbox to hold my powder coating stuff with an easy connect system, it's complete with a 2 connection and an extra moisture filter.
