Pictures would be great! I have my entire frame boxed from front to back so notching the frame may be a bit of a stretch. I was just talking to Zach over at drive junkies yesterday about running the the system. He was very helpful and assured me he would work with me if I had any fitment problems.

Which motor were you using? Is it a truck motor L83 or L86, or an actual LT1 out of a Camaro or Corvette? All of the drive systems are a little different.

OK, So the way I purchased the 6.2L Engine, it was a short block with rotating assembly and heads. so there was no way of knowing if it was a truck or Car Engine. (it does not appear to have ever had a Vacuum pump mounted to the block so it was possibly a Camaro engine)

There was not balancer or water pump on the front of the engine.

Currently it has a truck balancer and the Holley accessory drive system on it, as that is what was available at the time I started fitting the engine to the truck.

I have talked Zach At drive junkies and know I will need to change to a Camaro water pump and balancer.

Ok, back at it where I left off. The was late 2017. Pulled the body off and installed some plumbing and wiring.

Had to her put back together for Dino's Chevy Only Gitdown 2017. Here she is almost ready, just missing some glass and interior.

Here's some pics from the Gitdown, the hotel, and Goodguys Southwest 2017. My brothers 66 Chevy next to the suburban was our grandfathers truck. It had been about 30 years since I rode in that truck. Such a cool weekend.

Back home putting a few miles on the burb working out the bugs.
