Looking good. Wish I could find a clean SCSB.
Been lurking since 09 and I finally have my kickass 6.0 LQ4LQ4 LQ9 6.0L Engine Service Manual Save to your computer in case it disappears
this may be a dumb question but why do the front wheels sit so far back? does that have to do with the bagged suspension? but damn dude, lookin good. i really wish i could lay frame....but i use my bed waaay too much to hack it up. guess that just means i gotta get another truck...
Why didnt you go with the lower car intake manifold? Sits a lot lower than the truck one.
Great job though, always a lot of work in something like this
1978 C20 short bed pickup, GEN111, 4L60E trans.
The combination of the bags and a 3.5 inch body drop gives the wheels the illusion of being pushed back like that.Originally Posted by kewljay223
They are still centered in the wheelwell.
And yea I know what you mean about needing the bed. I'm a contractor and my daily driver is a lowered 06. F150 crew cab who's bed gets constant use.
If I swapped out the intake I would have to swap out a lot of corresponding parts.Why didnt you go with the lower car intake manifold? Sits a lot lower than the truck one.

The truck front accessories wouldn't work well with the car intake not to mention the injectors and the wiring swap for the plugs etc.
I'm trying to keep costs down as much as possible as you can see I have a lot more to do than just a swap like most guys.
Thanks for the compliments guys.
nice work, A+!!
Can't wait to see some pics when it's finished
