Default Doing some clean up on the 63 / LS1 swap

I'm sure some of you have seen my thread on my trucks build. I decided I needed to start doing some clean up since the heads needed to come off. I'm thinking I want it to have more of a "semi stock" look even though it will be lowered and sitting on the draglites. I will be hiding as much stuff as I can and even going as far as painting the motor, putting a carb style intake on it using a 2 stage plate vs the direct port, ect.. Here are some photos of the motor right now.

The engine looks real clean and shiney...almost like a new toy. I'm going the same direction trying to hide everything and make things look as normal as I can.

It's still getting the sheetmetal done. My friend who is doing it recently took a new position and has not had a whole lot of time to work on it. I don't want to bug him as he does such nice clean work.

Man, your truck is awesome. That video in your sig makes me want to keep working on mine instead of trading it away.
