Re: Before and after pics
So far in the last couple weeks I've gotten a good jump on the project. I got my 4.8 cleaned up and stripped, gave it a fresh coat of paint and some new gaskets. I also got my new oil pan installed last weekend.
I have almost everything except exhaust and the harness at this point. Sunday I began removal of the current drivetrain. I haven't liked that 700r4 since I got the truck and removing it just topped off my displeasure for it. With my transmission jack it wouldn't clear the frame so trying to be gentle I tilted it enough to clear and wouldn't you know it fell off. (yes i probably should've drained it before hand). I'm hoping to set the 4.8 in by Saturday evening, but we'll see how it goes. Please excuse my mess as my shop looks like a C10 bomb went off.....
