Torched off and smoothed my link towers to clear my shock coils.

And finally wrestled the stupidly big thing in (thank god for corys awesome shop for having a hoist) and doubled check some things. coils barely bump the tower now.

well after many phone calls today I've finally decided on a trans valve body and torque converter. doing Hughes performance on it, full manual reverse with trans brake and a 2000-2200 stall converter. going to get that rebuilt around the middle of November and while it's getting done I'm gonna tackle my dash and wiring then fire up the biggie block. also got a line on chromolly shafts from my friend bryce at www.rockwelloffroad.com so stay tuned

oh and I'll be getting my links and brakes in plus hopefully if we've accidentally set it all up right I might be able to use the factory truck drivelines.
