definitely gonna swing by, especially after all the chaos, i wanna see her up and running like a champ

 

haha, thanks for the support

counting down the days.

 

Its coming up fast, it looks like friday is a go, saturday is a maybe

 

Good luck with the swap! If you have your motor ready on the stand the swap is a breeze. The things that slow you down are the gems like broken off exhaust manifold bolts and stripped collector bolts on the stock exhaust.

 

He has Longtubes, so those shouldnt be too bad to remove

 

haha, yeah I plan on just unbolting the headers and we may need to try and shift the exhaust back a little to wiggle the 4L80E in. But its not something Im not prepared for so it should be pretty quick.

Hope to see you here Jeff, PM me if you need my addy.
Planning on maybe about 9 or 10am to start on it

 

Alright tomorrow is it! Finally!

Gonna wake up about 9 or so and start on it hopefully about 10. So come over about 10 or so and lend a hand if you can/want and hope for some smooth sailing

 

Well the sun was setting today and the 4.8 was still in the truck...
Fail


Aj had to whip out a "magnum xl" extension for the motor mount


We made some progress, the driveshaft is getting as new yoke and the motor/trans is ready to be pulled first thing tomorrow.

 

too funny Jeff... good times. Im a little disappointed in our advancement today but its really not all bad. Tomorrow I think if we bust some *** we can get it pulled, swapped, in and hopefully fired by night fall. Im gonna work on the connector/wires situation.

Its all good tho, cuz it wasnt this:


and tomorrow it'll be like this:
