Wow sorry guys I don't really get on the forums anymore and just out of a whim looked tonight at my old threads and saw a lot of you had asked questions.
But the motor turned out about as you could expect. Runs like a ***** ape at WOT and very little bottom end lol. Purely due to the size of...
Drove it out of the garage this evening. I am going to need a quieter muffler . But it has a small drip coming out of the bell housing but I am not too worried I think it'll clear up
Good news the seal was there between the rear main housing and the block. I had installed the actual rear main seal backwards :lol:. Oh well I have the transmission, transfercase, and crossmember all reinstalled. Hopefully I can get this running tomorrow.
This is the best picture I have right now of the rear main after it was installed. But there doesn't appear to be a seal behind the rear main adapter. I fell asleep last night so I didn't get the flex plate off I did get the transmission off Monday night. I would have dropped it all the way but...
Well.. no tune today. The trans is coming out. The oil isn't leaking out of the dip stick, if it is not much is coming out. I am pretty sure the rear main is leaking. And not the seal that goes around the crank... I think that the rear main seal kit I bought right at the beginning of this...
I think the transmission will be fine for now I had it "built" a few years back and they put in a shift kit, beast sunshell, and vet servo. The exhaust is well... loud lol. Mid length headers into a 2.5" y-pipe into a single 3" going through 1 spintech 6000 (or 9000 I don't remember which)...
Ok, so I got it running. The tuner came out, plugged his computer in and it ran and idled for a minute before it backfired and died. So he said that the firing order was off. He was able to play with some stuff but never got it to run again and once he left it took me and my buddy about an...
And the video. It needs a tune in a bad way so I haven't run it much more since it doesn't want to idle.
I need to figure out why my tach isn't working and I think I may have my distributor off a tooth. So just a couple things I need to figure out.
Yes. I am about halfway through getting it done. It comes from the side of the fender goes between the maf and filter adapter so it acts as a mount too. Then it'll turn towards the front of the truck and will actually in capsule the battery too. There is only like 3/4" to 1" of space from the...
Motor is in and basically completed, it's further along than these pictures but I was tired last night and didn't get any new pictures. I'm going to try to start it today.
