Got most of the interior reinstalled. Still have to get the seats reupholstered to black leather and change out the glove box lid so it matches the dash.

She's finally a driver. Still some things that need to be worked out: a small hesitation at low rpms, correct the transmission (shifting to early, not holding on long enough, not down shifting properly) but all of this is correctable with some programming.

Took it to a friends dyno and showed 435 at the rear wheels. So with 18% drive train correction engine is right around 540-550hp. Pretty close to what I was looking for. Have to say, this engine likes to rev. Have the limiter set at 6800. Once you get at 3k this engine just takes off. Still needs to get tuned. There are some ruff patches which I think it will work itself out once I drive it more. It only has 145 miles since finished. LOL Needs to be driven a lot for the computer to learn better.

Anyways, finally, here is a few quick pictures of the rims on.

That is one awesome build (makes me miss mine). I really wanted to do an LS swap in mine before I sold it. It was a '68 GMC SBFS with a blown 468" (5 miles/gal.). It was black with red interior, bagged, 4-link, 700R, A/C, 18" chrome Cragars, etc.etc.. Anyway sweet truck and congratulation.
