What headlights are these?

Just cheap ebay ones. I have to pull them they are already fogging up and fill with water.

Apparently, my rear main seal has given up on doing it's job. Don't really want to fix it, knowing I'm going to swap the engine, but hate not being able to drive it without making a mess. It's leaking pretty good. Thought about trying some Blue Devil sealer. Anybody use it before?

Yeah, what he said!
And although I don't "need" it, I WANT the NV4500, pedals, and all the other parts to swap mine to a 5-speed.

Wait, you already swapped the 5.3? Did I miss that? Or this is on the original 5.7 engine?

Still riding around on the 5.7. I bought some liquid rear main sealer, and seems to have helped. Aside from the leak, it runs decent, so been leaning toward doing some cosmetic upgrades, before the engine swap.

I wish I could do more frequent updates, but I'm juggling all kinds of stuff right now.

I'm seriously thinking about keeping the nv4500, when I do the engine swap, but we'll see. I drive like such a dick, when I have a manual transmission. lol Much more aggressive, than with an automatic.

I appreciate the interest. Helps keep me motivated.
