You haven't seen the spare parts collection I have.

Just ask Rey, It drives him up the wall the things I have collected and stashed away...

Hell, I had to give a few things away to good homes.

 

I like this build...

 

Very cool! I cant wait to hear how you like it once its up and running 100%

 

Found some time to work on this thing. Got the 60e out and 85e in. Either I'm paying a ton of attention to detail or I'm just slow these days...but the jack is finally out from under the truck lol. Still checking clearances and finishing up t-case mockup stuff with an empty case, but have everything to rebuild it. Clearanced the edge of the case a bit to make sure it doesn't contact the torsion bar on hard decel...need Richard to make me some coilovers. Also got an LS3 cam for free so I might throw that in with one of those fancy two-piece edelbrock covers so I can test all kinds of camz. Hopefully have it running in a few weeks. I dare say this may be the only electric shifted transfer case behind an 80e/85e in a Colorado...

 

You mentioned it having 799 heads. If you are interested in selling them PM me

 

Already sold them. I'm surprised there was/is so much interest. Almost figured they were garage clutter by now

 

Slowly approaching completion... Need to tidy up a bunch of stuff but all major work is done. Had a free LS3 cam to throw in, swapped in a less shitty radiator, pinned the crank, rerouted some coolant lines, installed the trans cooler, threw some cat-delete exhaust together and a few other odds and ends. Rear drive shaft shows up tomorrow...plan on shaking it down in 2wd and then will get a front shaft ordered for 4wd shenanigans. Transfer case is shifting well after the rebuild and installing the re-encoder in the truck.

 

Get it buttoned up enough to take it for a spin and discover it has the shittiest exhaust on the planet. I literally left the stock trash can muffler on so it wouldn't sound like this. Apparently these things are rasp monsters without the cats.

Shitty indeed.... Now what?

 

Throw a big magnaflow on it and call it good. That does sound pretty craptastic
