Thats bout as close to Kali as ill ever get..
Just to throw it out there... I started the R&R at 3:45pm.... we called it a night at midnight... Me and Skinnyman took an hour for supper.. But right now i have the Motor Bolted down. All there is left to do is bolt the trans up, put the Intake Manifold on, hook the wiring up, install the waterpump, A/C, PS, Throwing some new TR6's in there also, flash a new tune on it.
I figure if we get started bout 7-8am we should be through before we go to lunch...
Dockrocker came by to keep us entertained, and SemiHemi and Skinnyman helped..
Havent found anything wrong with the 5.3 yet.....
165,000 miles and the cross hatchs are still in the Cyl Walls... This poor lil motor has seen many of its days on the rev limiter (6400) playin the the mud and burnouts... Its out lived a few transmissions also....
I hope i can find the problem with it... if not i would hate to sell it and the ghost release the smoke on somebody...
hopefully ill be rapping it up tomorrow

Yea.. the 5.3 wasnt kickin it anymore and i got a great deal on this one..
Its nice, but it would be alot funner if i could get the tune squared away.
