Hah, Im still in the 'aquiring parts' phase. Ive got an 03 5.3/wiring harness, an 02 computer, MAF, will be swapping to an f-body oilpan and cable style throttle body as soon as my buddy pulls his motor out. Got a set of stock f-body manifolds for exhaust side, and a inline fuel pump. Im waiting on my TH700R4 to get built, then I can order the transfer case doubler kit. Ill be running a 231 into a dana 300. Have both transfers, just gotta get the tranny back to mock up and get motor mounts/tranny mounts fabbed up. Then its wiring time, then gotta get a fuel tank built, cooling system needs to be sorted, build exhaust, blah blah. Lots of little crap now really. Im eagerly keeping up with you and the other Jeep builds to see how things are going for you guys!

Thank you Yoda55,
I have some worries about mud and dirt while I am wheeling with my one piece front end. Was thinking about making my own air intake.Having it loop around so it would be closer to the battery tray,and out of the way of the mud and dirt.
I am almost done with my two year project building a humj7 from the frame up. Just trying to get some odds and ends done.

Holy tiny pictures Batman! What mounts are you using? Ive got my 5.3 sitting on wood blocks in the engine bay and it looks like I could possibly make the truck mounts work ok. My 231/300 doubler should be here first of next week, if I can find a mockup 700R4 Ill slap it all together and start figuring out some mounts for this thing. Its starting to come allong nicely!

Yes the pictures suck ! but,we do not understand how others put larger ones in here.
If I understand this right your running two transfer cases?
If so why?
We used advanced adapters motor mounts
