Here are some of the fuel line shots. I am using aeroquip sockless -6an line and a MSD inline pump.

Still waiting on summit to send me fittings for the fuel filter and the t bolt clamp to mount the filter!

Exhaust looks good! What brand headers did you use? Can't wait to see the cab on the frame, I love the color you picked for the exterior! Keep up the progress!

The y pipe looks nice. Was there a reason for running it down one side?

I wanted to stay away from the fuel lines on the drivers side other wise i would have done an X pipe. The motor isnt anything to crazy so i decided a y pipe would be fine.

great job man! This exactly what I want to do. A complete frame of resto-mod. I know it's not easy or cheap. But it's something that I wanna try! :phat::fro:

Well made sone progress! I got the cab home! Thanks to crazy ray for helping me get to back to my house! I cleaned up the bottom and sprayed some 3M rubberized undercoating on it came out great! After that dried Dennis his wife Amy and my roomate and I mounted the cab to the chassis. I had the pinion angle set at 3 degrees but with the porterbuilt crossmember I had to drop the tranny down due to it hitting the cab which brough the motor deck angle to 8 degrees pretty dramatic change! So I don't know what you other portbuilt guys are running for pinion angles.. This also messed with my Y pipe. hopefully I can salvage what I have built already.

Do have the small trans-hump floor or the large one? I know 6x-66's & 67-72's need the large trans hump for clearance or the tailshaft has to be dropped.
