Last Week.......ALL Fluids changed out (AMSOIL 10W-40, Castrol 10W-60, Mobile 1 75W-90, DOT 4)......and Differential Case Drain Installed.

This week the Standard Dynomite Top End Restoration.......
New Inj Housing, Plenum, Crank Case Vent Gaskets, TB Coolant blocked.....
New SL4-205 RC Injectors, New Coolant Hoses with rounded edge clamps, Pressure wash (hot water) under Plenum and total engine pressure wash (with everything under Plenum removed). Starter Solenoid will be restored and Alternator polished (not painted). A Billet Aluminum Belt Tensioner Pulley was added yesterday.

Note:

On this LT5 it will appear TB coolant is intact as I plugged the rubber hose (going to Coolant Surge Tank) at the connection to Plenum and inserted 1/8 inch Allen Pipe Plug in Injector Housing. Also will retain original #40 Torx Plenum and Cam Cover Bolts. Carter Bling in Engine Compartment will be added. Original LT5 Color will be retained.....making this engine appear TOTAL STOCK
Sounds great there Cliff! Total photo-doc and vid resto thread on the way huh!
