    I bet, it sure has been a long road for you! Glad she fired right up for you and didnt cause any problems getting it to start and run.

              • just put the rest of my exhaust on and took it to the local gas station for some fuel. HOLY CRAP! this thing is wicked and its not even tuned yet nor did even get into it. you can just feel the new power. i dont know if its the new gears, stall or the new power from the engine but damn! took it further down the road to get the trans warm and rear heated up and turned around and came back home. cruising at 60 and give it some gas and the rear wants to come out. oh boy. now to get a water pump. was dripping and after i got back it seemed to be getting worse. damn it

                  • Did you remember to put the seals back on the crossover? I forgot initially.

                    • yes monday morning at 9am for the tune. yes crossover seals were installed. its dripping from the inside of the big pulley so im sure its from the piss hole on the waterpump.

                      • just ordered a new waterpump. talk about last minute before the dyno session. any tips or tricks to getting all the air bubbles out of the ls1 cooling system so the light goes out?
