Another Vette LSx Update....
After working on the car on and off for the last couple of weeks - I finally got all the crap out of the engine bay that allows you to get to the block and start pulling parts off of it!
I pulled the radiator, the shroud, the fans, the steering rack, the water pump, the crank pulley, and all the other misc crap from the front end there.
They truely do stick 10 pounds of crap in a 5 lb bag on this car.
Now for some misc pics:
I also did some shopping last weekend and picked up some supplies.
That crank bolt torques down to 240 ft/lbs - my cheap $9 1/2" torque wrench from HF only goes to 150 ft/lbs - so I picked upa new one from Lowes.
And here is what I am left with - the cam is out, the heads are off, and the lifters are out too:
Boy what a pain in the ass this project has been - I see why shops charge so much to do these.
Right now I am waiting for parts - I ordered a set of LS7 lifters as I dropped one of the LS2 lifters on the concrete floor - and lets say the roller looks like crap now.
I decided to replace them all - because I am this far tore down, I might as well.
Hopefully by next week I will be starting to put everything back together.
