I like the viper red, looks good! What are you planning on running for turbos?

Freeman83

Thanks, I actually didnt know it was viper red when I picked the color. I just thought it was a bad *** red and the paint swatch only had paint codes on it lol. Im running two On 3 70's

Heres some of the wiring, decided to rewire the entire truck because most of the stock wiring was unused anyway.

new fuse panel plate




panel installed


im also installing some modern touches to the electrical system that gm neglected to put into my truck. power windows, power locks, door pins w/under-dash lighting etc. this truck came with a 9vbattery powered light on the headliner with a little switch haha.

thanks! they're my favorite body style too.

Great job on that fuse panel man! Really like your attention to detail, everything looks great man!

Freeman83

Thanks, wiring is my strong point lol.

Radiator relocation into the core support. Had to make some cuts and weld some sheet metal back in place where the cap goes to try to make it appear factory.

Don't think the engine bay will look very factory anyways with two snails living under the hood lol

Nice work, trucks looking good!

Freeman83

Wow really nice project. Can't wait to see it running.

What radiator is that? And are you going to be using truck manifolds or a set of headers?

Manifolds are yet to be determined. Finally got to see all his work in person today. The fab work is top notch! This thing is going to be sick. The amount of room for the turbos is crazy. I just hope my mustang build has close to the room of this thing!

Nice lookin little truck! Always liked that body style... that 4L60E isn't gonna like the twins one bit though!

Freeman83

Its a northern double pass right radiator. As it looks now, ill be using a 99 camaro manifold flipped forward on my drivers side and a truck manifold flipped forward on the passengers side. This seems to be the best fit for my build.

Lol, I agree. ill be babying it on wg pressure for now. I have plans for a full engine/trans build this summer. I just really wanted to get all the fab work finished and all the kinks worked out. when I pull it for the rebuild all the powdercoating and finishing details will happen.

Prepping the bed for a much needed bedliner

Heres a few pics of the dash im building for the truck...also known as the "worlds largest glovebox" by some haha. The opening is not a glovebox btw, its difficult to explain my plans for the dash but you will see when its finished.

I like your fuse panel. Looks real nice. I need to send you some pics of my uncles drag s10. We only have 1/8 mile track, well almost 1/8, it's a few feet from. Anyways he has a sbc 383 and runs on average 6.7-6.9 at around 96mph. He got below 6.5 once with a throw away motor lol.. He didn't even run a head gasket, he used some brass compound to seal the heads, it lasted 3 passes.
Good luck and good work!

Freeman83

Thanks man


Im waiting on a few more parts to arrive so I can get the turbo kit rolling. I should have some pics up soon on the progress.
