Yeah, I see the slosh tubz guys post on the 67-72 truck forums pretty often. I currently have factory inner fenders installed. Just took a little trimming for the coilover setup and turbo stuff.


Thanks for the compliment. The blazer is decent, but the buick is going to be way nicer....after all, it's not my money. LOL.

Time to accessorize.


Planning to run an LS1 F-body power steering setup, along with a custom passenger side alternator deal I found. This allows the acceccories to sit pretty tight to the engine CL, and will allow a bunch of room for turbo plumbing options. I wasn't able to fit the F-body alternator, with as far forward as I have the engine sitting. 


I'm also running the Holley swap oil pan, which fits GREAT...tons of room, and no cutting or boxing of the crossmember required.





Alternator sits kinda high, but will clear the hood easily.

Fronts floors are getting close to being done.




Sweet fitment of aftermarket offshore sheetmetal...




Maybe it would be easier to swap to Fred Flintstone power?
