slammed in the 5.3, sized a belt, fit the corvette alt bracket and stock truck tensioner, turbo fits. whew.

lots of stuff done today, motor is in, swapped on the stock tensioner and put the corvette bracket on, fit the truck alternator to that, and then made the turbo kit fit, whew its close! ill probably have to re do it for the 80 anyway since i will need to redo the down-pipe and stuff also, its nice to know i can drive it with the other turbo and see how it does.
