It will be crossing over under the tailshaft of the transmission and coming up the drivers side in DR.Gas oval tubing.

Black X · 03-26-2008, 12:43 PM

UPDATE!
Transmission is out and will be apart shortly for inspection and re-build.

The Engine is out and fully dissasembled, Sorry guys no pics, I will take some during the build of the new motor.

Slowly coming together.

RedLsxS10 · 03-26-2008, 12:51 PM

C'mon...just a few pics..

...PLEASE!!!

I think I remember you posting something about a tranny rebuild guide a while back...where was that from? If that wasn't you just disregard.

That would be awesome to have a tranny how to.

Black X · 03-31-2008, 06:19 PM

UPDATE

Transmission has been pulled apart and inspected. Looked very good for 185 passes and 8000miles of pretty heavy duty... I will be upgrading most of the hard parts as well as a re-clutch for this year.

Engine update:

Short block is going back together as we speak (lunch break) Crank looked good, gave it a polish and new bearings and back in it went.

Timing set, flexplate, cam and lifters are installed. As well as front and rear covers and oil pump.

Time to go play with these guys... more updates later

Pistons installed.

Presto! Shortblock complete... Tomorrow, I should hopefully button the rest of it up.

NateZQ8 · 04-01-2008, 09:29 AM

UPDATE???

Here is the update your looking for.

I have spent the Last 2 weeks at EFI Universtiy taking their EFI 101 and Advanced program, I am now an EFI University Certified tuner.

Today is the first day home for me, I am back in the garage and have only assembled the Valvetrain so far.

The engine is 100% ready to go back in the truck now.

Here are some shots of the new Yella terra Ultralite rocker arms.
