Thanks man yours and Larry's builds have been what inspired me and gave me the motivation to get this far. You guys are awesome. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm currently running a 97 vortec 5.7 fuel pump. Supposedly they are rated even higher than a standard 454 fuel pump. It seems to run fine now I've driven it some but who knows it might not be the right choice. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

This pretty much brings us to current. I got the front clip and radiator put on. Then pulled it out of the garage for the first time. The engine seems to run good but the transmission that I bought is not so great. The transmission makes lots of noise in first second and third gear so I will...

Next I took the sock suburban harness and the 95 454 harness and made a plug and play harness to use the 95 sensors ecu and retain all of my factory gauges and check engine light. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Once I got the engine and transmission in I found out the driver side exhaust manifold was a no go. But the hole for the transmission was perfect. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Next I started to strip the firewall to clean and paint it. The color is desert tan. Eventually I plan to paint the whole thing this color. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Ended up finding a 1995 TBI 454 that was very cheap. Only had 128k on it when the suburban it was in was wrecked. Came complete with wiring harness and ECU. Started tearing it apart to check everything clean and paint it. No pictures of tearing it down. I replaced all the gaskets put in a new...

Got the rear axle installed. For the rear I'm using the 56 inch stock rear springs an offroad design shackle flip and a DIY4X 6 inch shackle. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Maybe someone on here can help. All the rest of the pictures I have were taken with my new phone and it says they are to large of a file to post. What's another way to post pictures and how do I do it?

Measured and cut a hole in the floor also got the steering are in from sky's offroad design. I pieced together my crossover steering trying to save money but I think I should have just ordered a kit. I'm using an offroad design drag link but the taper in the sky's steering arm was not right...

Got the A Bomb center section put on and the front axle. Front springs are 52's from and 85 k10 with the overload removed and an Offroad design zero rate in its place. Shackles are 6 inches long and the front axle is moved forward 1 inch.

Very true man

Thanks man. Swaps are extremely easy in them and theirs tons of aftermarket support for them. That's what made me decide to build one.

No pictures but next I removed the engine transmission and started cleaning the frame and under body. I guess I haven't mentioned it but I'm also converting it to a manual. Drivetrain will be a 95 tbi 454 big block NV4500 transmission and NP241 transfer case. My plans for it are camping and...
