That Holley Dominator system is going to unlock the full potential of your build. How I wish I could use the stock gauges with that system.

Wish i could use the stock gauges also, but would be more of a hassle then its worth imo with the digital dash capabilities. Still need to figure out a way to mount that and make it look decent and find out how to wire in a gm fuel sender to the holley.

Well like everything else on this truck whatever i touch seems to need tweaking or slightly redone, nothing bolts up easily so takes time, update pictures finally tho..

I got tired of having everything powdercoated black or grey and decided to go a different route on the stuff you couldnt see, so went with a bright red for cross-members lol Lots of fab still left to do but feeling better little by little.

I have some catching up to do with you. I'm tearing my ERL shortblock apart to coat some stuff. I figured since they closed their doors I don't have anything to lose as there is no business to call if I have issues. Is that pan on the 80e a deep version? Doesn't look like it hangs below the frame which surprise me. Good stuff man keep it up

Gonna be a really nice truck when you are done.

Did you decide to run Holley EFI? I saw mention above some comments about hating to ditch stock gauges. I can assure you and anyone else, they won't be missed.
