Lets start with how sweet the frame is looking. I love the sheen that the Summit paint has. I have been using Eastwood products for years, but I think they just got bumped out.

Unless you want potential for resonance transfer in to your cab I would not use Urethane bushings. You might have a bit more body flex with standard rubber bushings, but they will absorb exhaust resonance much better than the rock hard urethane bushings.

I started cleaning the underside of the cab last night, in preparation for paint.

Here are a few detail shots of the frame.

Here's a before & after, took about 8 hours off and on after work. Does anyone know if any OBS cabs came with a heat shield for the drivers side under cab. I plan on running long tube headers with cats right at the collectors. Should be easy to fab one also.

I have a question, is anyone or has anyone ran the polyurethane cab mounts from Energy Suspension? I bought a master kit and it has cab mounts. I want to keep the truck quite inside and thought these might induce some road noise into the cab. What are you thoughts?

I would use the stock replacement cab mounts. The GMT400 GM chassis is sensitive to the cab mounts. The build looks good I always liked those trucks.

My problem has always been that I hate it when the body lines dont line up. The stock mounts sag after a time and then the bed sits higher than the cab. I would run the urethane mounts and deal with the sound issues with dynamat or something.

Courtesy of the big brown truck & Summit Racing. I am starting to put the motor back together. I bought a small cam Extreme Energy 249, I want the truck to be reliable and tame. I also went with a set of Headman Elite long tubes, 14ga tubes, 3/8" flanges. These things weigh as much or more than the stock manifolds.
