Prep for moving
I haven't done much since the last update. I did manage to seam seal everything on the inside as well as putting some 3M expanding foam in some of the areas where I might get some vibration. Some of you may think, that foam will only rust but, it is an automotive grade. If any of you do this, it expands about 10X the original volume.
Because I wanted to sell my rotisserie before I moved I went ahead and put the brake lines on it. This was my first experience with NiCop (cuniform) and it was much easier to work with than stainless. I did have to make a couple of modifications on the top of the frame rail and I used studs to hold on the clamps but, nothing too difficult.
The biggest news is that I found my final engine for this. A 2012 L77 (Caprice PPV engine, the multi-fuel version of the G8 engine) with only 18,000 miles and most of the accessories.
It's together for the time being, just enough so I can trailer it to the new house.
