Fab work coming along on the rear firewall. Side panels tacked in. Ready to have some beads rolled into the top and front panels then weld those in as well

What all fab work do you have to do up front - just the firewall?

I know it's a bit early to tell, but will we see this LT1 swapped out for an LS in the future perhaps?

LS is Definitely an option!! I'm really hoping this setup has a lot of life left though .....LT1 has heads and cam, injectors and forged pistons and crank amd a tune ....built by tico racing engines a few years ago. It ran strong when I started this project. So I'm expecting it to be good for a while.
