Good deal man they worked welk with those headers and the stock oil pan? I really like those caltrac brackets! The picture if the front one that bolts to the hanger is kinda dark, does it bolt through the frame or just ride on the underside of it? Ill have to try my hand at making a set of these thanks for the idea!

truck is alive again! drove it around the block really quick but it got warm fast with no fans lol.
still having a little issue with fuel pressure not being steady, i swapped out the fuel rail and regulator to a different unit so now i have to pull the bed again and put the inline pump back on which will be fun, once i get the harness from Nelson i can go back to tuning on this bitch! so nice to have it running and driving again!!!!!!

I decided I wasn't gonna pay that one website $25 for some overpriced chrome adapter for my temp sensor so I took my old one and stuck it in a lathe and put the M12X1.5 threads on it myself

went to the track this weekend to see what happened, ran a best of 7.980 @ 89 mph with a 1.8 60'. talked to the tuner and were gonna jack up the timing some i was only running 6 lbs boost and 15 deg timing so hopefully that speeds it up some until i can upgrade the blower and fuel pump.

awesome build man! i would love to do something like this in my 96, was thinking either a 5.3/6.0 ls or 355 ltx (i have a lt1 short block sitting in my garage) with a blower. im assuming you had the 5.7 vortec/4l60e before? did you have to do any massaging of the trans tunnel to fit the 80e?
