@@intheshoptv Well deserved and a great build, I built a '66 C20 fleetside and still sick that I had o sell it a while back and know what a daunting task a build is. I'm currently budgeting for a '55-'57 3100 build.
Thanks brother. I feel like it makes a long project feel more “real”. Cant explain it properly but - even if my body work sucks, paint sucks, interior sucks… at least I know I’ll have a driveable vehicle.
You did! They are Flowmasters inexpensive line of mufflers under the name “Flow FX by Flowmaster” Instead of the traditional chambered design that you described that they’re known for, these are kind of a Magnaflow design. They are a straight through muffler with glasspacked case for sound absorption but maximum flow. Yeah, they are very deep sounding in person but not really loud at all. You can carry a normal conversation while standing next to them without raising your voice. Admittedly, Id like to hear a louder muffler while goofing off and reving up here in the shop, but I’ll probably really like these while driving. They were only like $50 so the price doesn’t sting too bad if I want to swap and try different things in the future
Friggin awesome brother!!! I wanted to get a BP Automotive control pack originally for my Ls3 swap. I'm still a little ways from that step. I am on the cylinder heads now. I was planning on running a 6L90E trans but the core I bought to rebuild is trash. Over half of the internals are trashed. It's going to cost alot to fix it. The parts are high. I may just find a low milage 6L80E instead. May your engine sounds great!!!
Thanks man, it feels good! Not sure where you live but there’s a guy in Georgia that has a bunch of 6L80’s & 6L90’s used. He guarantees them and typically gets between $800-$1200. I got mine from him (and my engine too). He is trustworthy! My email address is in the description… if you’re interested, shoot me an email and I’ll pass along his contact info.
Lower output on the alternator is less work load. It may help it last longer. Not sure if that's the reason they programmed it like that. Usually less work means more longevity. "Usually" lol
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!
You are making great progress.
Thank brother. Appreciate the kind words.
congrats on the first fire!
Thank you! Big relief!
HELL YES MIKE!! Congratulations on one hell of a build!
Thank you sir! Much appreciated

That first start is always so rewarding. Great job!

Your engine sounds really great.
@@porschmn thank you!
Love this channel. Congrats on getting it started.
@@mikearmstrong4229 Thank you! Much appreciated!
Going to be a sweet ride, sure sounds great.
Thanks man. I cant wait!
It's a great feeling for sure, awesome job.
Thanks. Its weird admitting it, but I kind of had anxiety for a week or so leading up to it.
Yes! Sounds good bro, great work.
Thank you brother. Getting there!
Congrats!! Always a great feeling when things go as planned.
Thank you! Yessir, I was pretty nervous that something would go wrong. Usually does lol.
Just needs a cam for that chop! Great work
Na, its got the right cam for crushing.
It lives! Did I see that right, are those flowmaster mufflers? They dont have that droning hollow sound like usual and sound quieter than normal.

@@intheshoptv I received it. Thank you

Yes and supposedly extending battery life by not over charging. We shall see!
@intheshoptv I definitely would like to see how that works. I HOPE it's better. But like you said. We will have ro see. Lol.
Where can i order the T one fitting for intake?
