Re: 1971 5.3/4L60E first time swap

Update time!

1. Got my Braided lines made for the transmission!
2. Factory 5.3 Radiator hoses actually fit the Radiator (some hot water and stretching was included)
3. Got cooling fans mounted to Rad.
4. Driver side Battery tray is mounted.

Still thinking of best way to mount the PCM, been thinking of getting camaro/Firebird PCM mount from the salvage, its small and doesnt take up as much room as the Truck PCM mount. (Under the battery possibly).

OH FUN FACT!! was able to use the factory 1971 c10 Power steering hose after switching out the pressure fitting on back side of pump using the fitting from the 1971 pump. bent the line a tad and it fit like a champ!.
