No big deal. I'm getting ready to try and fit my factory ac (ls conversion) in the stock location on my 70 c10.

They don't fit very well down by the frame w/o cutting. I was looking @ this one when planning the swap for a 6.0 I bought. They show 'truck/2010 camaro' as one option so they might be very close....

So, we were about to start fabricating covers for the front inner wells to radiator support & got this idea that will kill two birds with one stone..



How about a coolant over flow tank & power steering tank out of stainless with a few machined pcs... Working on mount brackets right now.. will post a pic later of it mounted..

One thing I have learned about plumbing & making custom tanks.. is make tanks.. Wait till you have everything mounted & pre-run lines before you weld mounting bungs to tanks..

The cool parts just keep rolling out from your shop.........

Cris,How do you keep the tank's from leaking with only tack weld's. Are they welded on the inside.

Here is the mock of what things will be looking like.. I gave myself enough room to run A/C lines thru the bottom.. We need to build a bulk to retain all fittings..






Here is an idea of what the pass side plumbing came out like.. the fuel lines are done, oil filler tube is on the firewall, oil breather can is plumbed..

Got some mock up prototype pcs on the driver side.. If not I would give you a full shot of the engine bay..
