Spent some time today getting the Wamrods hood struts installed. Still have to make two minor notches in the hoods but the rest is done!

Yes Sir! Check them out! They have some for the 88-98 Body style as well. Wamrods is the brand.

Ditched the junkie oem throttle cable. Went with a 72-72 C10 Billet gas pedal. Fits squarebodies with no modification.

Ordered a Circle D 278mm 3000-3200rpm stall convertor for my 80e swap! Hopefully it will be here Monday. I also ordered a TCI flexplate SFI rated. Part #399753, this one is a direct replacement for the ls1 flexplate. If you want to go with one that has the pattern for a 4l80e, then order part #399754.



I had to order this TCC switch from PSIConversion, since I wasn't aware I needed it when I ordered my harness.

Can anyone recommend which deep pan for the 80e I should get?
And which dust cover?

Got the Circle D stall convertor in the other day. It's a 278mm 3000-3200 rpm with the 3 bolt pattern for the ls1 flexplate. Also got the TCI flexplate #399753.
