Default It's alive!!!!

Just got the truck started!!


Wooooohooooooooo!

Did a couple dry cranks with the coils unplugged, then plugged them in, held my breath, cranked it, and VROOOOOOM first try!!!

My first motor swap ever is a success!

Now I just gotta get the transfer case put back together, put on the CAI, and get the tune fixed for the 4L80E so I can drive the beast. Got a tranny fluid leak to track down too, but everything else is great. Motor runs well I have a subtle little lope too with the 216/224 cam. Hooray!!!
