Jim, you're gonna love those see-thru floor pans. I had Scotty install a set for me. I still haven't quite got the hang of them, as my butt still drags the ground when I sit in the car and make vroom-vroom noises. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)

I think an L33 aluminum 5.3 would be a sweet motor for a swap. 315hp and 330 ftlb of torque. Just pop an LS1 intake on it. It saves you a good chunk of weight over a iron block and good hp.

crevasse's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) got wire brushed, Ospho'ed, and brushed with rustoleum. Floor pan got holes punched, weld areas got sanded and etched primed and the center section got brushed with rustoleum. The rustoleum really isn't necessary, but I had it out and the brush was still wet so why not (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Still have a little more welding to do, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) but the biggest part is done (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

NICE PROGRESS (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

is it possible to minimize the door gap by cutting a thin slice up and around the long - apply some downward pressure to realign the door gap - then weld the slice back up?

No - you're that here in the Garage too.

Ride the short bus long enough and someone is bound to compliment your talent for sitting sooner or later. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) You do good work. Deal with it.

also - the pan was installed WITHOUT a rotissere, which means the welder was under a rain of fire (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

how many spot welds does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll tootsie pop ?? the owl wants to know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
