Some weight reduction
 
Hey Guys,

While the truck is tore down awaiting the arrival of the PerformaBuilt lvl 2 4L60E, I decided to change a few other things up as well.

Extra parts:

Fuel cell:

I even adapted the trucks original fuel level sending unit to work inside the cell.

Waiting for a transmission, and than to rebuild the dual exhaust. This time without running the drivers bank over to the passenger side.

I'll also be cleaning up & cutting off extra brackets and pieces not in use under the frame.

Cheers ~Mykk

The cell is mounted, I've got a question however. The sump has two -8 fittings, obviously one will be used for the fuel feed to the pump. Can I use the other for the fuel pressure regulator return?

Very nice, keep us updated, i plan on puttin a fuel cell in real soon as well. What gallon fuel cell is that?

04SilveradoMykk May 29, 2010 10:13 PM

It's a 20gal cell, wich looks funny to me because it's a 1/3rd the size of the trucks original 26 gal tank.

Lol thats true cuz i wouldnt have figured it was a 20gal

So you have an older vortec 350 in an 2004? Why did you do that instead of the ls engine?

I guess you don't have to take your truck to an emission test every two year like me :bang:
