Nice work up front on the suspension and paint. Looks too nice to drive.

Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne
Be nice if you could polish the area around the "Z" & then do matte black for the rest with the "10" & "LS1" in red!!!

Build's looking fantastic man!

Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne
I have a question, on the other C10 & K5, did you use the stock K-member(s) with the F-Body oil pan(s)?

Thanks!!

Yes, all stock components including the stock f-body oil pans. I used Street & Performance motor mount plates.

Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne
i have been absent for a minute but im here to anounce the news i just got a sweet pair of these Slosh Tubz http://www.facebook.com/pages/SloshTubz/174527065934455
it will save me some valuable time from building one.
I dont have one yet so i cant post pics of the trim and fit on a 73 but i will not relocate my hinge, i did alot of work to fit this particular hinge and im not about to redo it again. i will either cut down the tub to clear the hinge or cut a pocket to clear the hinge. see sample pics

Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne
Love the emblems and the tubs will really clean up the engine bay and are nice because you will still see your sweet a-arms. Build is looking awesome!

Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne
Mike has some sweet tubs, I may get some as well once I get to that part of my build, & I hve seen the previous post of the hinges, but I still have to say that those hinges are off the chain! ---->Drool!
