LT1 Blues....
So I get the plate installed finally after some "modification" to the IAC and thermo housing... Think dremel... and then I come back later to continue the clean up of the engine and hear dripping. Look under and see a trail of mean green. Fuuuck. I had bent the crossover tube that goes to the throttle body up a bit and I guess tweaked the banjo fitting the wrong way.  So now I have to replace that whole nonsense sometime... Ugh ugh ugh.

At least now that the coolant is drained you can fix the leak at the water neck.

I was thinking that as soon as I drained the block, EWP FTW, but then I got pissed thinking how hard that damn TB was to get installed...
