So maybe I got a little carried away stripping the interior….
Interior is bare sheet metal at this point, other than the brake pedal (which I have marked and cut down from the automatic transmission size to the manual transmission size). I have been looking at interior insulation products for the inside of the firewall, already have something for the outside. I have been focusing on some Ensolite or similar products, basically PVC-NBR foam which is available peel and stick with acrylic adhesive. Common temperature ratings seem to be 200-220 degrees F, which should be sufficient for interior application when there is an exterior firewall mat present. The more insulation I can stuff into this thing, the less I will have to run the AC in the summer.
In powertrain news, last weekend I tore into my parts truck, 1991 Chevy K2500LD, removed the NV4500 and all associated parts I had swapped into it. GM was kind enough to pre-punch the hole I need for the manual throttle cable in the suburban, so I can use the parts truck throttle pedal and just ordered the (hopefully) correct throttle cable to reach the DB2 pump. I haven’t found any luck finding the appropriate cruise control cable, either will need to junkyard it, relocate the cruise box, or modify another cable to work. I have the GM parts numbers, but all are discontinued and don’t cross reference anywhere.
Anyway some pictures.
