I forgot to get the frame pads off the TTA before it left, I don't suppose you know if I can use GN frame pads or do I have to go get them off the TTA?

91 BIRD 305 Looks like your a little like me , you wanted that V6 in that car no matter what. I like the DP . Maybe i should have done that so i could have cepted my AC.
TURBO ELKY One of these days when i come off the road for a sec. I will get some pics for yall to see. And dont worry about T TOPS, I have them , no problem here sence i in staled SOUTH SIDE MACHINE weld in sub frame conectors. To me they are the best out there. Once you insall them , you can now jack your car up on ether side using a floor jack.

Cool, Im looking forward to seeing them.
good times
Pretty good 1/4 with out much tune. I had a lot of problems when I first got mine running and this next spring I have gotten all the bugs out. I have been dirving it for about a year so and I have beat on it all the time. Its a very fun car to drive. It would be sweet to have a s-10 blazer. I think you could put a 9" or good built 8.8 like I have. good luck and looking forward to some pictures of your ride.

Ok I gathered some pics, Notice the steering column had to be slightly moved towards passanger side in order to clear drivers side header.Truck is NOT complete as far as interior/exterior goes mechanically runs excellent.Also notice Costum Engine Oil Cooler.

Hardly any problem fitting them. I did have to modify the original cluster. It was about 1/4 inch too small to fit. I bought the universal 6 gauge package and had to make it fit. It comes with a separate box that mounts away from the actual gauges. It uses a ribbon cable to run to the digital part. That box is where you have to wire your cars harness into. I don't know if the direct replacement dashes are true plug-n-play.
I wired mine in so that all the original idiot lights still work so I could have both lights and gauges.
