Re: Sparky's 1978 Silverado Build "Addiction"

Over the past week I've been collecting parts in an attempt to make my LS look more era specific. So I started to do some investigating of intakes, throttle body adaptors etc. I ran across the DelsS3 kit and was inspired to get to work on this transition. First, after giving this some thought, and ordering my parts, I luckily ran across a great thread from "dayj1" http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=668385 which has helped me enormously think through this process, take a look, it's pretty crafty work.

Pictures:
1. Before I started my work of removing the accessories, intake etc.
2. Some of the parts that came in last week. I'm waiting on the specific coil relocation brackets and the wiring that goes with it. Tonight I ordered some coil plug wires that I will be able to cut to size when I decide where to put the coils (probably behind the intake).
3. Intake removed and Vortec alternator, power steering along and factory accessory mount removed. Ready for test fitting!
4. Holley intake in place along with the OE Vortec Throttle Body sitting on top of the adapter plate.
5. Valve cover conversion in place along with the dual snorkel air cleaner.
