Thanks man, I've been watching yours too.

1) DBW. I was looking at another build (1971Stepside - post 27) and he had used the stock LS pedal assembly and welded in a plate with a couple nuts to the firewall and I am going to look at doing that. I've seen the adapter plates but they seem so bulky and I've already welded shut my gas pedal nuts. I help up my gas pedal the other day and that spot seems to put it in about the right position. I have the same pedal (adjustable pedals came in Denalis and Escalades) and it's really bulky, so I might try modifying it so it's not such a monstrosity and since the adjustability function is no longer usable.

2) Core support was blasted and it has Chassis Saver on it. It's basically epoxy and it dries to a satin finish. I put it on my frame and all my chassis parts. It's nasty stuff, it takes forever to get it off your skin, but it sticks to almost anything. It's a competitor to POR15 so it sticks to rust too.

3) It's a one-piece driveshaft made locally by a driveline shop.
