I like that sharpie technique for finding the center!Picked up the fan shroud box from the sheet metal folks yesterday. Glad I went this direction instead of messing with the universals from Summit. I am taking some pointers on this from @AggiePE ‘s thread.

Thanks. I saw it on one of Stoffregen’s builds on expedition portal.I like that sharpie technique for finding the center!
What an incredible build, that guy has some serious skills. I like the shroud you are building. TIG welding that?Thanks. I saw it on one of Stoffregen’s builds on expedition portal.
Agreed. He does some very good work. He’s got another 60 series thread over there that is worth flipping through as well, if you haven’t seen it.What an incredible build, that guy has some serious skills. I like the shroud you are building. TIG welding that?
Edit, I see a mig gun now, ignore
Sorry - missed this somehow. Yes, you can reuse those two lines. My firewall-to-dryer hose would have been quite long, and with moving the dryer further from the condenser not sure reusing that hose would have worked for mine either. I got them crimped and installed last week.Following as I'm trying to figure out my A/C line routing. I was under the impression I could re-use 2 of my original lines going from firewall->dryer->condenser. Is that not possible/advisable?
Thank you for the vacuum solution for the 62 xfer, that answered another one of my questions!
Great to hear! Which motor are you swapping in? And yes please on the fuel pump wire. I haven’t dug into that kick panel yet, but would prefer to eliminate the AFM and COR if possible and wIre a stand-alone relay for fuel pump. I’m all ears for clean solutions.Great progress! you're a tad ahead of me but our checklists are about same.... I found the factory Fuel pump wire coming off the Circuit Opening Relay behind the passenger kick plate if you're interested in using. I'm using a Tanks Inc pump (with an adaptor for the 62 tank with their sending unit too). Hoping to finish up my aux cooling and fuel lines this week.
I’m doing a 6.2L crate with 6L80e. It came with an independent relay for the fuel pump. Here’s the wire. I ran a test wire from the pump end to confirm continuity. It’s the bottom relay, just slide it off its post and unplug it. I jammed a small connector tool in there to release it from the plug so I didn’t have to cut it. If you go with a tanks inc FP, I can share my PN along with the guy here who makes a conversion bracket for 100% screw into existing 62 fuel tank.Great to hear! Which motor are you swapping in?

@adman02 just did a nice little writeup on the electrical for his 62 swap, and mentions a small gauge red wire exiting the COR.
Nice to see my adapter in useI’m doing a 6.2L crate with 6L80e. It came with an independent relay for the fuel pump. Here’s the wire. I ran a test wire from the pump end to confirm continuity.
