I messaged you my cell #...


Today I added about half of a 4th gallon of antifreeze, although it may need one more full gallon after the system gets burps (5 gallons :rolleyes:).  I installed the oil pan and tightened up the dipstick. 


It's right up on that header :(



We added about 5 quarts of oil and it looks like I'll need about 2-3 more quarts as soon as we get it turned over.  I'm not going to run an oil cooler but there's alot of oil that needs to run through the remote filter lines and I installed a taller oil filter.


I filled up the power steering reservoir and that may need two more of those little containers to make it all through the power steering cooler and lines.


Center console and shifting mechanism is up on the schedule still and that friggin' clutch pedal does not want to come out without a fight (sawsall!!).


I picked up the wrong fittings from NAPA (for the fuel lines) but it will work for us.  I got the inside fuel lines...  The ones that go inside the plenum and connect to the injector spider.  But that's ok because I can see the exact thread and fittings I need.  So tomorrow I'll get that fittings company to mate the Jeep fuel line to have the Chevy ends...  Then I'll return that part back to NAPA.  I should have fuel tomorrow...


At the end of the night we got into another spidery mess.

I still don't think this is easy, but so far not alot really was easy....   But Aaron has a good idea on what he's doing and so far, everything's plugging in...  We need to do some custom MSD stuff and tachometer but I guess that's something that may be easier for someone who knows what he's doing.


but here it goes...



If this thing starts after a few cranks, I'll be amazed.
