ITS ALIVE!!

Got the L98 running finally yesterday. Almost had it running Friday by hot wiring the fuel pump but the injectors weren't firing so I was force to swap dashs....

Still got left to do is tidy up a few wires in the engine bay, tighten the TQ Arm mount, tighten up the rear end and get it back on the ground, bleed the brakes, and get a interior back in it. And some other odds and ends like the air cleaner, and clean the motor from my greasy hands

hers some pics ...... the before



and now!!!!!

The engine runs great! Plenty of power, idles nice, trans shifts good (now that theres fluid in it lol). Now its time to finish up the interior and for some headers to fix the exhaust leaks!

God I miss the torque of a 350... eh, in a couple weeks.

you let him help you on your motor swap which involved him killing his cellphone.
