Ok, just adding to my build page:pIMAG2050.jpg IMAG2051.jpg IMAG2054.jpg IMAG2055.jpg
Question : Can someone post a pic of how the heater house bracket is mounted on the valve cover. I was able to get one to replace my missing one. IMAG2052.jpg
Note: Tires on the rear are just a hair wider then the fronts, 305/45-22's compared to 305/40-22's. I kind of like the look of it.

I hope you got 2-piece backing plates or else you have to pull the axles to install them. Dorman makes the 2-piece ones that avoid that hassle.

Drove it with the new Blackbear tune. Power gains most noticeable in the higher rpm range. Shifts nice and firm and revs a little higher too. Low end throttle response same as before though. Here's a sound clip getting on the freeway:

Nope I got the AC Delco one piece backing plates, read a few reviews about the Dorman ones being thinner and rusting out quicker, I know you gotta pull the axles but I'd rather go through all that and replace them with ones I know that they will last the OEM ones lasted this long, the passenger side one is in pretty good shape the driver one is shot, I'll do axle seals & bearings too
