Yes custom a/c lines. Fast 102 intake is not ported. Yes the the. Yes the. Bottom support was modified. The top of it was cut out , welded in some brackets to hold rubber pieces for the radiator to sit on. I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Once it all gets painted I think it's going to look really good.

Update
well I quit my job a few weeks ago so that has really slowed things down mentally for me. I have all the parts it just needs put together!
Pushrod length measured. Ended up with 7.380 no last measurement. Went with a 7.425 length pushrod. Now waiting for valve covers etc to get back from the powder coat shop.
Also the stand up radiator fab is completed and entire engine bay is painted. Went ahead and has them do the ceta mod while it was in the body shop.

Slowly seeing progress.
2" Kooks headers showed up finally after 2 'months. I sure hope I don't regret these big headers.was going with stock rubber motor mounts,just ordered some poly mounts to help with clearance. I'm guessing clearance will be tight with these. Rubber mounts will probably deflect too much.
Nick Williams throttle body barely hits the o ring on the fast intake at the bottom. Sold t and ordered a Holley 105mm. Fitment always seems to be a problem!
Just eye candy

Im more worried about the fitment, I am running a BMR K member so hopefully that will help. I was hoping to run new stock engine mounts to keep vibrations from the cab, but Im not sure if I can get away with that movement of the engine with those mounts.

Stay tuned for some progress next week. Engine will be completely assembled friday. Then 4l80E will be hooked up. Next week hopefully the K member will get swapped out and new front end suspension.
Procharger pulley will be a 4.25". This will put the F1C impeller speed at 58,000.
