This new Holley bracket system is very nice and compact, very slick

Where were the radiator and headers sourced from?

You made the engine mounts or adapted a stock mount?

Hey Jeff ... hope all is well

Rad I sourced from Speedway, the motor mounts were already fabbed in the truck and we used them just as a reference point to where we want to be. I have new mounts from AA.

The block headers I actually sourced from a local vendor ... stainless and I have to excellent quality

The rad mounting kit I sourced for BTB Products ... had to be 'slightly' modified but will work perfectly for this application

Cheers

Thanks Steve!
Watching close, trying to gather my courage for our LS swap. Ours is still in interior jail so the winter swap is looking more like a summer swap...

Say whaaaaat !! still at interior ... holy crap
Well buddy I can tell you that I've learned a LOT over the Padt month and can surely assist you anything/info you may need

[Ketzer]

Did you use the Holley pulley setup because you had to, or you just needed a pulley setup and theirs was compact?

I've got a '14 Camaro pullout that I planned to use as-is, thinking that arrangement would be as compact as they come....


Jeff-

[Sheck44]

Correct Jeff, I needed a front drive system and the Holley is a decent price and like your Camaro setup (I checked it out) is perfect for our application

Well its always an exciting day when you mount tires on wheels !!
These are 17x8.5 SCS wheels mounted with 35x12.5 Fallen Wildpeak M/T's

Stance should be 'just right' ... LOL

[Sheck44]

OK ... ditched the crappy tailgate that the original builder had installed and replaced with proper Aqualu Industries gate .... WAY better








Installed gas tank/Fuel cell
