getting close now. All done underneith except starter. Have lock in so I can put new balancer on when it gets here. Got my new pulley and belt for vacuum pump. Just have belts, pulleys and fluids basically. Some little crap like plugs and wires on drivers side, grounds and temp sensor plug and drain fuel.

I swapped out my Yank 3600 Pro for the smaller Yank SS 3600. I actually liked the heavier Pro better on the street.

Well I got her running and home. I put in a new LS2 temp sensor and my 2000 computer did not like it. It was grounding out the motor and making it miss. I stopped when temp said 240 and unplugged it and she ran real good. I had the back loaded so only hit it light a couple times. Going to break her in right for about 400 miles.

Thanks for the torque converter and oil pump info! I am following your progression closely because I am leaning towards N/A with maybe a small shot for myself. Keep the updates coming!

Will do.
This weekend is a new tensioner and replace a bad Temp sensor in head. Then I have new wires with heat wraps. Hopefully get a few miles before the tune in a couple weeks.

I also put a small dent in passenger front fender that chipped the paint. A bolt flew out of grinder and hit it perfect of course. I need to get it to the paint shop
