a few small updates...
it's still not 100% perfect, but much cleaner now. Degreased and pressure washed it. Almost time to start changing some parts

more updates...

Cleaned up and partially painted. Relocating the front air ride valves off of the firewall, since the passengers side ones are gonna be in the way of the exhaust dump/cutout once its turbo'd

Future exhaust cutout/dump location. Might cut/notch a section of the fender bracing, and firewall for some extra clearance, and so I can run it out the fender at a 45° angle

And back on. Now I gotta make a make a block off plate for the clutch linkage hole, remount the air ride valve somewhere else, remove the old fuel line, and do a few other things. Then it will be ready to drop the 5.3 in once that's ready

Front frame/core support cross member painted and halfway installed. Just need some nuts and bolts, then I can bolt it, and the core support frame mounts back on

Making custom truck parts... got the tools made to make the molds for the final products. These are standard size radio delete plate molds/tools, and a couple of custom ones being made. Not pictured/made yet, is a double DIN one for when I put a dvd/cd/radio in. The long one will be used to hold some extra gauges (once I go turbo), a dual usb charging port/cig lighter, and the ignition switch. The standard size one im not using. These are being made out of fiberglass, and are nice and thick/strong

Doing some mock up if a few things so I can figure some stuff out. Got the f-body dip stick tube bent to clear the headers... but looks like I'm gonna have to do something about the coil packs because the front ones shoots the spark plug wires into the header tubes. Guess I'll have to make some new brackets or something to move them around to somewhere else so the wires will clear the headers
