coming together wish me luck.

Got her ready for start up. Had a f*** up mistake with the battery. Ended up rigging it. Anyways got to a stopping point.... need anti freeze before I "bring the thunder" starving too.. so taking the family to pic up olive garden. Cant wait to get home and fill her up. Heres the completed look for now until I get new cables from @5vortec7 and new battery possibly. Hopefully everything works normal and drives good. Fingers crossed.. today the day I've been long waiting for

Well got her running.... she wants to move for sure. Everything was working normal as far as oil pressure and fuel.. first thing I did was put some premium gas. At the gas station she started to shake a bit at idle. Not sure if its just got to break in. The ac was blowing cold til I started heading back home.... then it blew hot.... not sure if it's the compressor or froen..... either way I'll deal with it later. At this point long as she runs and drives good I'm happy

You gonna have to run premium in it now? On a Burb, 44 gallons,that could get expensive!
If I put premium gas in mine it wouldn't know what to think. Probably quit running or something. It runs pretty well on the Kroger 87 octane and there's one down the street from the trailer park.
Congratulations on getting the engine swap done!

I hear ya! Shouldn't have to run Ethel (old school, ha ha), just adjust timing and AFR in your calibration.

Congrats S5. You've played a blinder. It will be so rewarding driving that Suburban knowing it goes so well because of the effort you expended.
