    Got a little bit done over the past few days, not much to show pictures of though.

    I have the engine/transmission in its final resting place, got the Trans xmember modified, made an EGR block off plate, spark plugs and wire in, fuel lines run and a few other odds and ends.




    EGR blockoff


    Not much left to do. Waiting on my harness before I put the front core back together.

    Few questions:

    Whats the best way to use either the OBS or NBS coolant reservoir? The NBS has a much larger hose fitting at the bottom of the reservoir compared to the OBS. Not sure what to do on the plumbing for this part.

    I am relocating the battery to the drivers side, does anyone have any pictures of how they mounted it? Going to do a search in a minute.

    I also am ditching the ABS. I need the line nut sizes for the front brakes that go into the ABS brain. Cant seem to locate that information anywhere.

    (its the 3 small lines)

    Thanks for the help

    Got a good bit done yesterday.

    Biggest accomplishment was relocating the battery tray.

    Cut the tabs off the old bracket

    Mock up for the leg


    Finished


    I've got everything ready to go just waiting on the harness. Still not sure how to plumb part of the cooling system and which reservoir has been working best.

    What are the wires that come out of the passenger side firewall on the LT1 harness?

    Going to the junk yard today in search of a driveshaft

    For the brake line ends, i had to reuse mine. Think they are metric though.
