Radiator, fans, and trans cooler plumbed in.

This leaky POS will be buried in backyard, or something.

Gotta grommet the fuel line pass throughs, mount the fuel reg properly, and then tackle trans dipstick. And torque converter bolts :lol:
Keep the pics coming princess.
May even get to the track before the heat waves set in, but, prob not lulz
Ya would be nice. I don't go if it's over 80.. if I buy some s pray paint can I spray your trans
Never, gonna give it a nice coat of pink when I pull it for trans dipstick shens.
Rather you buy him a new chair for the garage.Quote:

Haha, those hold down's are a PITA but they do the job don't they?

They just sucked to hold and mount, was a hot mess :lol:
Running out of things to do before pulling dash :lol:
Main power lead from starter to fuse/relay panel, 1/0 because overkill is good.

New relay panel in, and main power/ground lines run.

Started to brainstorm how the fuel reg should be mounted and plumbed, but kinda stuck on that one. Prob pull dash next evening I work on it.
Well, they ain't shiny cool stuff but, more pics
So, this happened.
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...psftwtfbcb.jpg
Yes, I am just as shocked.
And, harrrooo engine!
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...psfvgadww5.jpg
Made a mess of wires
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...psw4mum2dc.jpg
Felt enthusiastic so popped in a hole, grommet-ed it and fed the knock sensor/starter led through instead of running em up and over.

Tmmr I will start organizing engine harness and what not. Le sigh.
Dang that thing is gutted... even more then mine . A2w threw the firewall while your there spanky...
Wiring blows

What do you weigh 400 or 500lbs? Mine has a full interior.
.How Did You Like Pulling The dash? About 2 million damn screws lol.
Do it. .. methanol and a2w...
Straight M1 fueling would mean no intercooler at all :lol:
Dash just sucked, but my biggest concern was the dash pad, the rest of it could break and I wouldn't give a fuck
Not breaking a dash pad when removing is cause for celebration. I was lucky enough to do the same.
Small progress today, back is killing me and I got pissed off at the stupid ****ing fuel reg so called it quits early.
Back to a engine looking thing

Action item list getting small
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...psipw5kwvb.jpg
Basically today was getting the engine harness organized and pulled through firewall. Aside from a few grounds, the engine could run as is now. Pulled the MAF plug for good from the harness. Got to order up stuff for the gauges, then put the dash back together, and then the BLS HID mayhem of a harness...
������
What are you questioning?
It was a thumbs up but it's not showing up. .
Ah, yea I just see a line of question marks lol
Same here ... sometimes they work sometimes they don't ...

Another successful day with the ole LT1.
Preliminary coolant bleed, aux power for now cause god knows what loose hot leads are laying around in the car. Swallowed a few gallons, didn't leak, cylinders are all full prob
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps8vww4gwq.jpg
Poor picture of the hood, down, its been a long winter, excited to see it on the ground
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...pswgatufh2.jpg
Another couple pics of driver side, pleased with how it all came out.

http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...pstw4qrty7.jpg
Keep it going. What's left?
A lot of small stuff.
-Drop trans pan, check/edit dipstick length
-Wire up the pumps/fans/headlights to relay board
-Run new switch panel and gauges
-Mount PCM to firewall
-Reassemble dash
-Add fresh gas
-Vroom?
So, I am an idiot.
See how low that is? Yeaaaaaa....
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...psvdwpbq48.jpg
Corrected height
http://i924.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps8tu4wuwz.jpg
Dumb rookie mistake. Of the many lessons this never ending saga has taught me, never assume any one else knows what their doing.
Mine must read a bit low when in reality it's overfilled. Mine puked a bunch and now isn't doing it. .
That looks like the same one as mine. Lokar?
Reading low and it being high is a better combo than reading high and being low. Pretty sure it caused a few of my WOT over rev issues. And yes, lokar.
This pleases me.
Where's the video of the beast running
