Lol, I appreciate it! I am really digging the "I'm flippin broke and pissed off look the truck has" haha. I got alot more done the past couple of nights.
Checked off the list..
AN -4 Turbo Lines are all done 100%
Intake is now on for the last time
'03 Tahoe Gas Pedal with TAC Module (I swear GM knew I was putting this in, I'll post up some sweet info on this)
Shifter is in (woohoo, just gotta weld up the shovel handle)
2001 F-Body radiator is in for the final time
On this list tonight..
Finishing up wiring (harness has been done, just wrapping and positioning)
Finishing up Wideband install
Plan on having this crazy thing running this weekend, atleast fired up.
Will post more pics and videos!

It's gonna be sick man. Sick. Can't wait to see the videos. You should take unsuspecting people for rides whenever you can. They'd never see it coming.
Keep it up man, again, very cool.

***UPDATE***
Update for you guys!
Got a couple more things done tonight. Wanted to show you guys a really sweet mounted point for the tac module on these trucks.
Well, I went with DBW setup due to the PCM and Harness I had laying around. The factory 1989 cruise control module is mounted next to the brake booster on the firewall. As I was trying to figure out a good spot to drill and tap some holes to mount the TAC module, I happen to notice the bolt pattern/spacing looked very close to the TAC modules bolt pattern. Guess what…. EXACT same bolt spacing and all, freekin bolted right up haha.
Anyways, couple more teaser pics for your guys…
Tac Module and PCM location
Look at the match up haha
Didn't cheap on on this one with the turbo feeds.. AN lines suck to make BTW
80lbers spaced out (tall versions)
F-Body Radiator in (Just gotta slide the fans on and paint the brackets)
And downpipes are all wrapped up (Yes I only used zip ties to hold the wrap in place as I thought I had 3" clamps, but didn't_

Shovel Shifter is now completed and I'll tell you this, it feels rowdy having your hand waaaaaaay up on the shifter lol!! I think it kicks ***!
And of coarse after I burned some wood to give it a nice touch lol
