My installer quoted me a price of 1500- 2500 to wire this animal up, and dyno time to get it running right. Parts should be in, in a couple weeks. In the meantime, I get to tear the front of my engine apart one more time. Thank goodness I have that cross member that my son and I had modified from DIY4x4, makes it much easier to drop the pan Anyone want to buy a Cloyes timing cover with cam button? I'll be posting it soon in the classified section Thanks for watching, this beast may work soon

Re: PO has me PO'd
talked to EFI, and they said the clearance between the reluctor ring tooth and sensor s/b 30 thou. measured mine and came up with 23 thou., so I added a 10 thou. spacer

Re: PO has me PO'd
timing chain cover installed, with crank sensor
word of caution...with the reluctor installed, it will push your balancer out maybe 100 thou., so alignment of belts and pulleys may be a problem in my future, we'll have to wait and see  [url=https://flic.kr/p/Ys8DTU]20170915_095530

Re: PO has me PO'd
All you have to do is turn the correct amount off of the snout of the balancer or find a balancer from a L31 Vortec.

Re: PO has me PO'd
Kinda hard to hold w/p, 4 gaskets and 2 March brackets in alignment at the same time, so I use exhaust studs for alignment, then remove to bolt up....

Re: PO has me PO'd
[url=https://flic.kr/p/YCJ9iC]
 the gaskets had a chance to set up, so, I took one bolt out at a time and reinstalled with thread sealer. Left side mounting bolts were a PITA, had to use a ball end allen wrench to tighten
