Good you have help, hopefully good help! WTF you think is wrong with the 6.0?

i dont know, might have had a clogged injector, I hope that it clogged completely and didnt just lean it out or else I might have a burned up valve or worse a broken piston. when I looked at the tune one bank is running a little rich(not too bad) and the other lean, so something is off besides the tune.

Haven't had much going on lately. Just a little! But progress is progress I guess!

But the front clip back on. Painted the core support and stared at!

That Damn A.D.D dose that to me! LOL!

Ready to finish this old girl, and find out where I screwed up!

Had a good Easter Weekend!


Family was in town. So I had some extra help with the Blazer. HA!

Finished up the Radiator hoses. Mounted the Fan's and shroud.
Mounted the ECM and Finished the Air intake.

Even started on the TH-350 rebuild. Tare down went good. Found some parts to replace. Roller Clutch, thrust and torington bearings, the Normal. Cleaned all the parts and case. Bought my parts today at the Trans shop. So tonight I should have the sucker back together.

For some reason I'm good at transmissions? I done around 12 for family and friends. Enjoying for me!

Justin

For Some Reason I CAN'T UPLOAD PICTURES!!

I only ever built 2 trannys and that was in school, but I did have fun with the t350 I did. I'm going to find a video on building 4l60e and 4l80e's so I can build my next tannies myself. I can trust my work and its so much cheaper!
