I when ahead and ordered a new pan (stock depth but w/drain) from Summit and I'm gonna pick up a drain plug kit and we'll see which way works the best. rolleyes


get a 2002 silverado stock pan, its deeper and has a drainplug. its been discontinued from GM for a while but dorman makes em still, get the filter that goes with it too.

Gave a quick Plastidip to the bumper for the winter. Just wanted to eliminate the "white delivery truck" look at bit.

I'll start on the bodywork after fall is over.

I did something interesting.
Since it was lightly raining...
I figured, I only had one day off work this week, so why not,
I wet sanded a good portion of, one side of, the van today. smile

not quite sure what this means?

I installed dual exhaust with flowmaster 50's and even though I was unimpressed initially with the sound, I will admit they are starting to settle in nicely. Currently, I need to locate an oil leak on the backside on the front axle then move towards a future Edlebrock 4bl upgrade.

and the rear/side doors need to be de-rattled.

Havn't done it yet but Today I get to play engine mechanic and try to fix my right rocker assembly and correct that annoying loose lifter/rocker tic that is starting to get louder.
It has a 4.9 that I'm using till I swap out for a 327 built from a 307 crank and I believe 350 pistons.
Can't wait for the day I get my new engine in it.. A V-6 sounding motor just ain't my thing..

I don't mind Coming to work,
but that 8hr wait to go home is a bitch.
No matter how little I do,
I always feel I could do less.
