Re: 1970 K20 Z62 Full Restoration

You boys are kind to check in.

I got it all apart. Removed and re-sealed the backing plate and bench tested it. It is all back together and holding fluid. It was as frustrating as expected. Taking that compressor (and everything else) off cleanly is a challenge.

Unfortunately due to work, family commitments and weather...there hasn't be a good day to start it. I am hopeful for this weekend. The engine ran on the dyno, but never in the truck. We haven't had a day where I've been in town, off work while the sun was up, and not raining since I got it back together.

Also, it needs to sync up with Eric's schedule. It's a minimum of a "two sets of eyes" situation. Always worried about fuel line leaks or the like.

The minute we've got a resolution...I'll be posting.
