The engine is just about ready to fire! I'm down to plug wires (should be here in the morning), battery box, heater hoses and change fluids. Hope to be down to plug wires only by tonight. Getting excited as it will be a running truck again and I can actually get started on the suspension!
I'm taking all the pics now because I'm sure it won't be this pretty once I fire the engine. Hopefully all the paint doesn't burn off. Here's what I've done:
Cleaned, degreased, pressure washed, sanded (nothing crazy) and cleaned the engine bay.
Accessories, Inner fenders, Radiator, and core support painted satin black (VHT empoxy)
Painted the engine Chevy Orange while still in the vehicle (don't suggest doing that again)
New water pump, thermostat, plugs, plug wires, air filter, and fluids
Fixed a few minor odds/ends
Keep in mind this a is temp detail so I can drive it while I collect parts for my LS build.
Overall I'm happy with how it turned out.
