Looking good. I like the fuel crossover in the back. Much cleaner looking IMO

Thanks jimbo. All I have left is to run the lines from the pump to the filter on the fuel rail. Also change out that blue/red fitting behind the press gauge to a black 1

Looking good. Are the heater hoses kinked coming off the waterpump or is that just the angle of the pic? I do recall seeing on LS1tech that they (chain parts stores) carry heter hoses with 90* ends. Might be worth a SEARCH if you run into any pinch problems.

Keep up the good work bro!!!

Here's a few more pics. The sun was only hitting the back of the car so the side shots don't really do it any justice. The 1 pic of the trunk is the best. FYI The panel between the tail lights is going to get painted satin black so it didn't get buffed after we sanded it. Getting the rear bumper and the panel below the back glass painted this week also.
