They also said they have to do it their way to make that happen.

I did have that thought

Scott got the sub frame connectors in today.

I also order a set of ring bros hood hinges to go with with bling I have for under hood play.

And we have a Vaporworx technology tank by Hector at Ricks... it's a bit big, since the IRS wants to live in the same space.

So, Hector sent a call tag and he will cut it down to fit, saving Scott some TIG work. That is what I call service.

Will still clear the exhaust that will route under the IRS and back up.

Scott's been working with DSE to narrow the track width a bit on the IRS. I bought all their control arms and sent them out to Scott, who cut an inch off each one. He's also building adjustable upper arms.

If this were a stock 5th Gen Camaro, at stock height, I'd be a little worried. Granted, we're a boat load lower, a 2nd Gen and do not need all the travel. I think we'll be in good shape.

He also did the TR6060 mods for the tunnel and 4th gen center console. We're working on the e-brake handle now. It will need a flat spot, under the center console slot and the cable passes through a hole later back, under the rug.

It's funny, I thought I stole the idea from LS1tech, but also found an install here. Stealing the pic from Woody - This is what it should look like:

Those DSE parts look pretty stout! I'm going to try to use a 5th gen console in mine. Yours will look nice when your done.

Console's in for the most part. I have to weld in the e-brake mount when it gets here. TIG should be fine.

It will be cleaned up, trimmed to fit the floor, then wrapped in leather. I love interior work, y'all should see my GMC truck's cabin.

It looks like it fits pretty well already.
