I'll just transfer my original one, need to finish stripping that cab of the stuff I want before I haul it off for scrap. Need to get the bed off the donor before I start loading the trailer back up with scrap.

I kept my original one too, that way if I ever build another, I can install it in there and it will be a removable one.

Yeah, I guess I've never paid enough attention, but it's well beyond the trans hump, and seat area.

Set the engine/trans down in the frame on Tuesday to check clearances and start planning for the exhaust

Then pulled it back out, threw the engine on the stand and set the cab down on the chassis to get it off the lift. Our owner needed the lift for a couple days

Tried some Dodge steelies on the burb but they didn’t fit, so I threw them on the CUCV and they work great.
Also swapped out the alternator and added some extra power and ground cables on the burb.

Can I talk you into chambered exhaust? Pretty please? Lol. The couple times I've heard chambered exhaust on modified LS-based stuff, it was downright cool.

Lol not a chance. I agree, it does sound awesome but it drones like a **** and I as much as I long haul this thing, I couldn't stand it. I know for sure I'm adding resonators to cut down on the clap but haven't decided if I'm gonna keep the Corsa's on it or try something else. I'm gonna plan the exhaust out with "modular sections" essentially so I can change mufflers/resonators easy later on if I wanna try something else.
