Re: 86 K30 Restomod LS swap AKA Blue Rust

I ended up getting a harness kit from PSI, dakota digital gauges with BIM module, and the vintage air kit and kwik compressor mount. That is where the headaches came in of how to tie them all together.

Fortunately the military has a complete truck schematic for the trucks original harness published online so I took every wire out that did not run the lights, wipers, or ignition.

I used a ford winstar dual fan on a big block radiator. I also bought a new hydroboost for a newer chevy truck and extended the pedal rod as needed.

I tried a newer see through 1 1/4 bore master cylinder but ultimately took it off because the brake pedal sat too low with it. The original style cast iron 1 5/16, I think, master cylinder felt like a better brake pedal.

I robbed a steering shaft from a Jeep cherokee at a junkyard to replace the rag joint shaft.
