finally an update, been trying to remove the crank bolt and couldnt get it off with my impact and snapped the head off my 1/2 inch breaker bar, had to take the motor to work and use our 1 inch torque wrench and it cam right off. cleaned off the block and removed the oil pump so i can install my new pump and seals. also got my head back from being clean and seals replaced, just waiting on my intake manifold and valve cover to come back from the painters.



should be resealing my diff and installing poly bushings this week and hopefully install the motor this weekend and take it to get tuned shortly after that

Nice update. Who made the exhaust manifold? I must say I have never seen one like that.

Dont know what you paid for it, but the "chinese" manifolds work great and actually look good and are relatively inexpensive... 150 or less. Its my opinion that that manifold looks like some guy made it in his garage with no idea of how exhaust pulses and cylinder timing work.

Again, not trying to talk crap, just offering an opinion.
