Going to be using aftermarker gauges. Stock ones are to dang hard to see at night. ecspecially, at high speeds. Would like to do the "All Motor" &/or stock suspension classes, but I have enough NOS to nuke a small town for my 440 build & for future use (2) 106MM turbos for the alum HEMI build. Won't even need the 7.50 cert at first but at least it will be all done right.

It goes thru the trans cross member part of the frame, then turns & goes thru the other part of the front sub frame & then up on an angle to the inner rocker panels with plates welded to the inner rocker panels. I think I have pictures of that too.
