Off topic but your dash looks really good!

Did you paint your dash? Or just remove the factory grey paint?

If so, what paint did you use or how did you remove the factory paint?

I cant remember exactly, I think it was plastic specific paint. It stayed tacky for a few days, took forever to dry.

Did you ever get your push button ignition figured out? I'm getting ready to put a motion race works column in mine and need to figure out what to do with my ignition switch. Push button would be nice.

For those of you that don't follow me on social media I figured it's time for a long overdue update😂Even though I still have a ton of work ahead of me, after month and months I think I've accomplished a lot! Swapped the Fast LSXR102 for a Holley Hi-Ram, swapped over to DBC, Installed a Mazeire electric water pump, an onboard Air Compressor for boost control, and Holley EFI is finally installed along with the Painless wiring racecar chassis harness. Ended up paying someone to professionally install the Holley mostly because I wasn't Fing something up and jeopardizing 4k worth of parts lol. Very happy with how everything came out but still have a long way to go to finish up the gbody swap up front and get the 9" finished up along with wheels and a drive shaft. Unfortunately I probably won't get any passes this year but hoping to at least get it on the Dyno before winter. Just happy I was finally able to hear it run again I almost forgot what it sounded like😂

Do you have a Facebook page for the truck or just your personal?

Haha thanks, that's why it's taking so long to finish this damn thing, I'm too particular when it comes to stuff.

Just my personal most of the trucks progress gets shared on Instagram first, it's just easier
