Chris - looks like an awesome build. Those Speedtech Extreme frames allow for some insanely wide front tires! I know LT4s from the factory have electronic PS... are you running PS on yours? Don’t remember seeing a PS pump on the front end accessory drive in your picture, but maybe I missed it. I have a ZL1 with that motor and the low end torque is amazing... look forward to following your progress!

Thanks for the Props Brian! I am running hydraulic power steering. The pump is mounted low on the driver's side of the engine. It's a Jones pump with remote mounted reservoir. I"m running 315 tires up front and 335's in the rear. It's crazy how those tires look from the front of the car.

Gotcha - I see it now... was looking for the reservoir. Is that a Drive Junky front end accessory drive? I briefly considered an LT4 for my build and, at that time, no one had an accessory drive that included power steering, but know a couple have since been released. Those front tires are wider than my rears! I’ll be running 305’s in back but only 255’s up front on my Chevy II...

Yes sir, it is the Drive Junky drive set up. I will not hesitate to use the Drive Junky setup again on future builds. The quality of the machine work, finish, and fit is remarkable.

Looks killer man!!! Those seats are dead sexy too.

Impressed how much metal work you have done on this thing, looks good.

Love the trial by fire.
