well, danny said it, the tranny is in and it is all correct this time. Throttle cable braket is cut and ready to weld. It needed to be modified to fit so I will have pics of it up soon. Power steering is on and the next batch of stuff to get painted is starting to pile up. Pictures are soon to come.

I know that choice of convincing him to paint the subframe or else gary would put "that" picture back in his signature was a little to much to handle. Like it was frightening, Infact scarier than the PMs peter keep sending me to invite me over for a sleep over.
So I thank you for painting the visible parts of the sub frame and saving us all from that.

What a shame that you're not open to "new & exciting" scenarios...

Right now I am waiting for my welder to come back home.....DANNY!!! haha. The welder will be home this weekend and I will start to do the custom fab work to make the dip stick tubes and fill tubes and throttle braket and others to be the way I want them. I also need to redue the wiring harness for the 5.7 this weekend and the sound deadner will go down this week sometime. Anyways, I will have pictures up this week sometime I hope.

Sorry for the long period of no post. All I have to say is the wiring is the long part of every project. pictures speak louder than words.
I am turning the stock 4.3 harness in to a "2000 chevy express w/350 and 4l60E RWD 1500" I took my time and it took about a week or so. More to come
