Been working in the truck, is getting there, we installed the gas pedal, we had to modify the pedal, wecut about 1-1/2" and weld it again, paint it black, we now have to drill the hole for the wire that goes into the tac module. I'm laying out the fule lines, how close to the fuel tank do I need to install the walbro in-line pump, or whats the farter that you can install it.

On this next picture, do you know what is the purple plug, I was thinking that it was for the MAP sensor but I founf teh plug for tha MAP sensor, is almost the same except the guides are different, this plug is running along all the wires taht goes to the tranny, does any one know where does it goes.


This are the wires that goes to the tranny, question, this set of wires are running along with one of the oxygen sensor, which side does it goes, is it the driver side or is it the passenger side.


Just a picture of the gas pedal


Thanks for the info

Here are some pictures of the truck, is almost complete, we installed the fron tof the truck on Saturday. We almost complete the fuels system I am using braided lines, we just need to add a hole to the tank for the return line. I also send the computer to Brendan (lt1swap) so he can remove what I dont need. I also order the gauge cluster from Digital Dakota for the truck. So the swap is almost done, hopefully everything goes as plan.

Well, the truck is almost done, hopefully I can have it running by Friday, we just need to modify the fuel tank a bit and then install it along with the fuel lines. I install the gauges from Digital Dakota, they look good, here are a few pics of teh gauges.
