![]() As for the kit, maybe they accidentally sent you a kit that had been returned to them, but with stuff missing? ![]()

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
The fuse block in the left floorboard will unhook from the harness. There are a few regular style plugs on the backside and then a few where you have to unscrew the 7mm bolt from the top side them pull the plug out from the backside of the block. After that you can pull the wires through the hole in the firewall.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
What is that saying about skinning a cat????
I got a little creative today and pulled the cab back 4 feet on the frame to reveal the engine and trans/transfer case. This will be much easier than fighting it out of the rails and under the firewall.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
No, I am just using the engine, wiring, and rear axle from this truck because it had such low mileage. The transmission I'm using is from the same truck as the 2wd frame you see. It had a 4.6 liter and a lot more miles or I might have used everything from it.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
WOW.
That was a beast. Can't imagine how hard it would have been with the cab in the way. I wanted to pull it all together so as to not tear up anything with the trans or torque converter. I then could very carefully divorce them on the ground with no damage. I degreased with some Krud Kutter and then powerwashed. I got it in the shop right before the thunderstorms hit. Maybe tomorrow I can get the 2wd transmission bolted up and set that dude in the frame.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
The engine cleaned up nicely except white chalky deposits on the cast aluminum. Does anyone have a solution to clean it up. I need something to spray on - no way to get even a tooth brush sized wire brush in all the crevices.

Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.
You're certainly welcome. Any time.
When you find out the best cleaning method, you'll know it ![]() Honestly the only thing I could think of was a dremel with a polishing tip...that might work....
