I have been posting in the wrong part of the forum so a little about what i am been doing i have been putting a ls1 and a 4l60e also doing a four wheel disc conversion into my 1971 chevelle it seems to be more of a restoration than a conversion no really big rust spots or holes just alot of service rust and a **** load of dirt nothing a wire wheel and a mask can not take care of here are a couple of pics.

I have removed the tank and the rear end i wired wheeled and put 2 coats of lizard skin on the bottom of the trunk i hope this will take some noise from the fuel pump! i even got my son to do some work lol!
