No worries. The truck looks great! I drove it around the block last weekend for the first time since I bought it in 2009. It been a long road. The engine rebuilder took forever, the speed shop took a year and half to put engine in and ruin the good transmission. It has lots of new parts and the whole frame was repainted last summer. it has new fenders too.

If I could do it all over i would have dropped the $10k on an Ls1 4l80E conversion and been happy. Oh well....... Off to the garage to fuss a little more with datamaster and see if I can hook it up the right way. :oops:

sounds like the speed shop was a sham job, and just wanted your money grrrrrrrrr!

holy shit!! 10k?? thats twice what you paid for the truck!!! :rant:

i hope you get it figured out and get her back on the road. :tup:

I'm in, just let me know where and when. Jack and jack stands are always in the trunk, so I'm good to go.

DAVE!!!!!!! How in the heck are you man???

Time has been tight for me as of late as the plant is down and we are changing everything over for the new car.
I am at the Chrysler Plant in Belvidere now, in the IT dept of all places... LOTS of automation here.....
I would LOVE to get together and help on a truck, if you guys do a Saturday I will get there when I can.

Sorry NO cutting on exhaust this time....(OR my arm!!!)

BTW..... Timing, No problem.....

Thanks for the replies!

You can buy the factory service manual on CD-Rom from forum member Opie. I belive it includes the supplemental manuals, also.

I have class on Saturdays 8-4, in Joliet actually, so that could work for me. I can bring tools and/or beer.
