Id put the W/A up front over out of the way. That way the air dont have anywhere to heat up by the time it gets to the engine.
Big icebox in the bed. Could split it with a fuel cell so the fuel stays chilled also

4.8 and glide are bought, old drivetrain removed , and poly mounts and H3 oil pan on the way. Glide is FTI unit with 3600 billet converter. This will be a track and SHORT cruise only truck. I work 2.8 miles to work so I can sport the hombre at work anytime.
