LT1 swappers - photos needed

I'm finally getting some serious work done on the swap guide and I'm in need of as many swap photos as possible. Thanks Drakar and 6speedIROC for the photos so far.

The main thing I need now are photos of the crossmember modified for A/C, but any photos would be helpful. Also, any photos of fuel and powersteering connections, as well as heater hose routing.

Just to let everyone know what I'm doing, I'm dividing the site up into different sections to cover different areas of the swap. What I've thought about so far are the following:

-FAQ
-Hardware list
-Mechanical
-Electrical
-Heating
-A/C
-Powersteering
-Fuel delivery
-Transmission
-Modifications
-Swap Registry
-Pertinent Links

If anyone has any ideas or information that they think would be helpful in putting together this monster, let me know, any help would be appreciated. Thanks


Tristan

Ok, I've got the basic page up now. All I've got right now is the main page and most of the FAQ, but I wanted to see what yall thought of it so far and see if you had any suggestions.

Here it is

lol, if you're talking about the one on the main page of my site, yeah it is a badass camaro. wish I could say it was mine. I'll have to look up the guys name and e-mail him to make sure its cool I use his photo, but its a car off the board that is very similar to mine. I'll keep everyone updated on the progress of the site. Should have the swap registry up tonight or tomorrow.
