Still need to get all the exhaust made, wire it plumb it and the odds and ends. My goal is hopefully to get to drive it this yr before snow falls..
yes i have the dominator ecu and digital dash, just need to figure up a way to mount it decently and incorporate a gas gauge and im sure i wont miss them at all.
Wow had no idea they closed their doors, only few months after i picked mine up to, hopefully i dont have any issues. The engine side of their buisness was tiny compared to the space they had for marine stuff.
The pan is a little deeper and holds a qt or so more than stock , but its not a deep pan. Got it for that exact reason, when i got the truck the 60e had a deep pan and was the lowest thing on the truck, i wanted cast for whatever reason and found hughes made a standerd sized cast version..
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

Yeah without warning they up and closed. I guess there was some warning as they were selling stuff dirt cheap before they closed. They said they moved on to focus on the marine side of the business. They had a good product though.

Finished a few things left that were underneath and got it back on the ground under its own weight. Sits and looks good, bad part is oil pan is lowest piece and is 5-6" off of the ground..
Truck is a freakin shoe box tho, its small compared to my ss, and my ss is small compared to the new trucks so its tiny.

I see photobucket screwed over everyones build threads including mine. Ill have to upload Some pics again but doubt it happens anytime soon.
I mounted a b&m shifter finally, made a plate and covered it in 3m vinyl. Looks decent but not exactly what i had originally set out to do which was make it look more factory with a boot. I like the shifter alot tho.
Mounting the fuel cell, fitting a a2a, and mounting trans and oil coolers is next. Then maybe some custom tigged hotpipes come fall..
