Re: First Steps LS Swap......

If you're looking at the pictures above and thinking that bracket is mounted at an angle, it is. The first was straight, then I realized that the bottom of the air box was at a slight angle to the top. Had to make a trip to pick n pull and start over with another bracket. So, next a flat plate to connect the support bracket and the box mounting plate. If you look back at the battery box I made using the tray from the 06 truck, you will see I cut a two holed mounting tab off it (post #149). That was welded onto this plate and used to bolt it to the inner fender, the inner fender had to be worked a bit also. I thought about welding all this together, like the original battery box was, but this allows for disassembly for access to wiring and some adjustment of the mount. Greg
