I’m back with an Esky this time

Couple other things real quick. I got the t-case adapter cleaned up. Had to scrape old gasket off and file down a few spots from chiseling it off.


Then I made a new gasket.


Driveshafts painted. I may end up doing a second coat but it depends on what i do with this exhaust. If I pull the trigger on headers and ditch the cats then I’ll have time for a second coat.


I was suppose to go north yesterday with my brother but having this Caddy go down put a halt to finishing the last couple things on my sled and also had to stay back to get this trans done. Bastard sent me these pics last night when he got up there.


That sissy ass eco-diesel Ram couldn’t even make it 10’ into the driveway.



They did get some snow up there already. It’s a good sign of a lot of trips up again this season.



Of course I had to remind him that my heavy Chevy at least made it 3/4 way in the driveway.


“But there was a lot of snow this time!”
*****, please!!



Got the itch!! Can’t wait to get up there and tear it up.

The trans has the classic SBC bellhousing pattern, as does the engine except for that one hole because it'd protrude into a head bolt.

Yep, your probably right. See, your notsodub. You’re a pretty fart smellow. [emoji23]

I’ve seen it before but forgot about it. They added 2 bolts to the bottom vs the old sbc engines with the inspection covers. Not sure about the 2 holes at the top of the new bellhousing though. I’ve only ever seen the one at the top. Maybe they have one at top offset. Not sure.

What're you doing sitting in a chair?! You have a transmission and transfer case to install, exhaust to repair and reinstall, driveshafts and U-joints to install...

Get on it so you can move on to the next overwhelming (for us) project!

Chair at work. If I was at home, your absolutely right, I wouldn’t have the time to sit around. That’s the only reason I go to work, so I can get a break from my projects.

Well, this sucks. Wife told me she was just hitting the street to deliver at 2pm. Probably won’t be home until 9. Looks like I’m not getting anything done today. I have to be at work by 5 in morning so no way I’m going out to do anything at 9. Maybe 2mrw she will get home at a decent time.
