Well today my insurance expired and I'm not renewing it because we're supposed to be starting on the BD and everything else sometime by the end of the year. So it's gonna sit here until the garage space opens up, and I'm gonna be driving my other POS S-10 haha. And here's the motor that's gonna replace the tired old 4.3

trying to get $500 for that motor...that's what we got it for...I was over there this weekend, the box tube notch looks alot better than the normal 8pc ppl use on trucks...he was just grinding down some of the edges on the frame cleaning it up around the notch. The 4 link is badass. Beefy as hell and he's got it set up perfectly, nice and parallel and the upper/lowers are damn close to being equal length if they're not, they're real close.

Bret, here are a couple pics for ya.. As it sits now..the driveshaft hits the floor before it lays out, by a couple inches, so the tunnel will need to be raised a bit to compensate for that. Heres how it sits as of now..

Any new picts or updates on the progress your making doug?? Love to see finished pics too. Oh and I'm really trying to figure out what's going on in the 'bret5.jpg' pic. Almost looks like the notch is welded to the gas tank.
