i cant run a factory latch so i am running the flush mount aerocatch hood pins the tear drop looking ones. there fit and finish look to be nice in the packaging which reminds me i have to put them in here soon.

I'd love to talk to you in the spring about doing a 5.3L swap in my truck. The little S10 is a cool project.

Heres a couple more pics as promised.. not as far along as i would of liked because we are in process of building a much bigger oven for my powder coating business but we got some done at least today!

log manifold with turbo mounted before finishing welding it up.. its mounted up that high because i still wanted to retain my stock fender liners uncut and just how they come from factory.
