Looks good. Im not a huge fan of yellow but im digging the yellow and blue. Something different. Im kind of in the same boat as you on the tranny. Ive got a 4l80 but cant decide if I want to use it or not. Good job though.

Don't let that engine bay fool you, header selection sucks because of down low, between the k member location and the fact that GM made the frame rails kick in it is a PITA compared to most.

Looks fantastic btw!

I'm going to go with racinginnavations ls swap headers, cant justify the price on hawks, still trying to figure out where I want to put me coils, needs them somewhere not in sight. ill post more pics as I go, thanks again guys
