Thread: The Beast ***56K warning***

Sure thing Scott

Well came home from work completely exhausted.


but i got the water pump and valve covers off.







Tommorow I hope to have the heads off.

Got a semi full day of wrenching in!

Went and bought the right bolts for my harmonic balancer puller. GOt that off no problem. Then rented the power-steering pulley puller. And the damn thing wouldn't work. Tried for like 2 hours. So i take the thing back. See if they have any-ideas. And nothing. So i go home and low and behold I could just unbolt the damn power-steering pump. 2 hours at least wasted. But after that taking the chains and everything off was just fine. The damn bottom bolts for the heads are too long to get out with it in the car, so it took a while to get the drivers side head off, along with the dipstick tube. I just cut the dip stick tube. Anyway, I got it down to a short block. Everything looks good still. Can't wait for the Heads to show up to start reassembly.

Tomorrow the Drag springs go in it.

My buddy brad, you can tell he is a Chevy guy/import guy...

nice man..... hopefully i'll finish building my motor tomorrow. sweet pics and good job. i'd like to see it in action after it's going again.
