Blown06-New Build: Cage, 4-Link, Cog Drive, + Too Much More

It's gonna be on the 10-bolt till it gives up. Then I'll have madman put a 9" together for me that I can just bolt in.
They're Kook's 2" F-body headers with 3.5" merge collector.
For those wondering how they fit. I had to trim the ears off the bellhousing part of the 4l80 to where it is narrower than the block itself. The passenger side just touches the frame (a piece of paper might fit between the header and frame) and one primary tube barely touches the motor mount on the driver side.
A little tweeking and they should fit fine. Gotta get the v-band flanges welded on and have them coated.

I got an email from Brian this morning and the master cylinder and the new A-pillar plastic are in the mail.
Thanks guys.

No problem man, I figured that before this was all over you guys would probably decide to get a sponsorship deal rolling so I figured I'd start advertising now.

Got more pictures from the crew over at madman's. This is the new trans x-member. One of the main reasons I wanted them to do that was that I had a bad feeling that the motor was not in the truck level after I did the 4l80 conversion. Brian told me that had to lift the back of the motor about 3*. They also integrated a drive shaft safety loop. Looks like I gained some ground clearance and lost a little weight too.
Looks good guys, I appreciate the photo updates and excellent customer service.
