I think I've posted this before and if there is a thread onthis topic please except my apologies.
I am looking for the yellow color that GM used in the 77 only two tone trim.

I went back to the adjustable engine mounts. Moved the engine 2" forward. NV4500 shifter is now easily out of the way of the T-case shifter assembly. Tranny Mount is also almost exactly over the factory crossmember.

BTW 104K mile 454 carb to pan for sale cheap.
I picked up a 90k mile 6.0 out of a 01 2500 suburban...
