I'm still working on the floor pans , prepping them for paint. Once I get past eternal sanding hell , you'll see some pretty rapid progress.

I spend insane amounts of overtime ( I've worked 31 hours in the past 2 days) , at the Peterbilt Truck Assembly plant in Tennessee. My problem isn't being able to afford parts , it's finding time to do anything but work and sleep.

New convertible top made it here today. Black Stayfast cloth with glass instead of the cheap plastic rear window and the Eibach Pro springs (1" drop) came , too.

well one thing i noticed was the rs springs are veriable rate springs rear that is and the front springs dont look like they have near the srping rate of the iroc springs so its a toss up really im running with iroc springs at all 4 and wish mine were stiffer for sure or I guess the shocks dont help much but hey just 2 cents
We're waiting to see how it turns out Thread Starter

The billet bug bit and it bit hard! Got a complete accessories drive kit from Street & Performance. This kit is billet but has been chromed so I don't have to polish it on regular basis. I also sprang for the polished A/C dryer to help round everything out. Alt , P/S pump with seperate reservoir, A/C compressor and all the hardware and brackets. This is the only kit I know of available for the LS1 currently. It ain't cheap , either.
Got the Aeroquip fittings and stainless steel braided A/C hoses too.
