Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?
plugged leaky oil pipe adaptor, new o-ring, primed engine properly this time, turned it over and flushed oil system, changed oil filter, installed distributor, installed fuel rail, installed upper intake and test fit TB. finished 90% of battery reloate to boot and ran wires forward through the frame.
Tried making some nitrile rubber fuel hoses - what a bitch that is. Might stick with braided!

Put new NGK TR-6 plugs in her and changed the oil. Reprogramed BS3 for no meth.

yeah well it has basically sat outside pretty much untouched since Fall 2005, last time I drove it legally was was to the Hooters meet in December 2006.
I have another chassis for it to build off of, not sure when Ill actually get to that, but I do have things to make it all better again

Dang since '05? You're doing pretty good IMO... My bud left his truck out for an entire winter after building a HUGE garage. For reasons only known to himself, he decided to keep it outside all winter long. A moldy truck in the spring was the result:

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?
I checked for leaks under the truck just now. It was moved to a clean spot on the driveway last night and i could still see a droplet of tranny fluid on the edge of my t pan again.No puddle but i can see where a couple drops have fell since just last night.
Ive r+r this pan 3 times now and this is the best ive done yet . Maybe i forget about it for a little bit . Only have couple things left till drivetime .

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?
I added a filler nec to my W2A IC
I installed nice new SS radiator hoses (upper and lower)
I installed new boost control solenoids
I redid the lines to the WG
I (tried) to make some kind of spark plug wire heat shields
I also did general wire neatening/tucking/vacuum line re-routing, etc.
After I get things done, I have to take off the brackets/pulleys and powdercoat them all....I'll do that when the tuning's done.

I shreaded yet another serpintine belt, so not I have to address that problem and figure out if I have a bad pulley or what is going on. I thought I was gonna get my C6's put on until this happend, Ihad my tires mounted on the rims so thats one step closer to getting them on.

Re: What did you do to your SY/TY today?
attached my exhaust system minus the dp
threaded the spark wires with the protective boots
connected fuel lines
attached front prop and torqued up all 8 bolts
attached rear prop and torqued up all 4 bolts (27 ft lbs - wtf? AND they're tiny)
tidied up PCS wiring harness and epoxied the plug for prop shaft clearance
narrowed down my list of things to do before starting it up.....
