While waiting on the cable to arrive I found a decent used ZL1 manual cradle to get a 3.73 diff out of. It arrived and started working on tearing it apart.

Got the old diff bushings out and replaced with Hendrix's offset bushings.

Love following the build! Especially when it is sub zero degrees here in MI and my cars are certainly going nowhere, and have nothing to post about. That burnt cable is scary. Shows you should run the largest gage possible, have good clean connections. And can never have too many grounds.
