IF youre following my scout build, you'd know the shop has been swamped with customer work. No, i am not complaining..

the end of triple digit weather is a few weeks away, and i'll be happy to get some time back on my own builds.

I ordered the parts to mount the LS1 brakes, and a 'short' intake manifold to see if till fit under the stock hood.

I'm not going for max power on this build, but, i don't want to spend $800 on a LS1/3 intake manifold that is 20 or so years old.

So i went with one of Summit's intakes and we'll see what it looks like when it gets here.

I need the intake for the fabrication and modifications I'm doing under hood. I ordered another Qt of the color posted above, and also a pint of another color. I'll do a spray out panel and make a final decision then.

I'm certain it'll be the color i did the hood and fender with, but, Im still not 100%..

Once the car is back on the ground and rolling, we'll finish getting the engine and trans plumbed/wiring and running. It is so much easier to move a running vehicle than a non running one..

At that time will pull the doors and prep the jambs and get ready for the color change..
