finally getting around to making some progress with the old exhaust out of the way I have been cleaning up the frame rails. that has consisted of pulling out all the old fuel lines and cleaning up and re running some of the Newer wiring and adding new clamps for the current fuel lines and current wiring. I wanted to get that all done before the new exhaust goes in. Still have a ways to go but its looking a lot nicer and less and less like a rats nest under there :metal:

Got both sides of the Speed Engineering Long tube Headers in today for a test fit. Both sides fit no problems with frame clearance. Only problem is my stock transmission crossmember was re used and I have decided instead of putting some pretty extensive bends in the exhaust to just go ahead and replace the crossmember with one from Ingenuity Fab and Speed to make running the exhaust a whole lot easier and to keep it tucked up near the frame rails and out of site.

Re: Bmxbang's 71 Project
finally got around to ordering mufflers going to go with Black Widow Venom 250's I think they sound amazing on the ls motors with a cam. Hopefully get the exhaust wrapped up in another week or so then it's time to tear apart the rear end and give it a refresher.

Re: Bmxbang's 71 Project
Damn that sounds MEAN! I love what you've done with her so far... My initial thought on the first post was "yuk, ditch those blingy wheels and drop it to the floor..." and sure enough within a few posts, you had done exactly that! Keep up the good work, and post some more videos of that exhaust sound! maybe a drive by if you can? I've got a 6.0L swap in my '62 Impala, and I kept the flowmaster 44s that were on it when it was a 350/th350. It sounds good, but I've always liked the Black Widows, I feel like they're made just for LS swaps.

Re: Bmxbang's 71 Project
nice! i've had my eye on the black widow mufflers for when i do my ls swap. ya sold me... sounds great.
