Re: 66 GMC Long to Short LS Swap

Been working on a pipe notch, used a section of 5" heavy wall pipe and some 1/4" flat bar. Plumbed a centre line up from the axle, marked out the pipe notch and cut it out with the plasma cutter. Made a cardboard template of the frame and cut a piece of flat bar to match it. Fit everything up and welded the pipe to the plate. Then I used clamps, a torch and hammer to shape the flat bar to the curve of the frame.

Still have to weld it in and box in the inside. Ill probably round off all the corners and drill a few holes to plug weld in the middle of the plate.
