WAZOO Day Success 1/21/17

[George Maz]

Under Plenum... brass fittings, black hoses, clamps.

Outside Plenum... black fittings, red hoses, LT5 embossed coolant tubes drilled.

Both methods achieve block-off & bypass.

Tom, congrats... glad to hear that the car is exceeding your expectations! Looks great!!

Is that green car the Callaway Supernatural vert? I thought that car was for sale? Was it bought by one of the WAZOO?

Cheers,
Scott

Hey, Scott!
Green car is an LT1 coupe came by to inspect possible clutch slave cylinder issue.

Dynamite,
Yes. Your assumption is correct. I read your thoughts on flushing out trapped air while filling with coolant. We take it a bit further and install elbow fittings on the back of injector housings, bring the to a single hose using a "T" fitting and connect the tube to coolant return hose.

Roadster,

Great post and pics. Awesome group of experienced folks working there. Looks like fun, too. Maybe I missed it, but how many miles were on your LT-5?

Anyway.....very high quality large photos like you have presented helps everyone that is thinking about doing a Top End Restoration.
The photos are very much appreciated

No problem on the pics Cliff, if you feel the need to use any of them for reference, feel free to do so. And I would assume that the 95 is identical to the 94.

Thanks G-Sting, it is fun and always a learning experience on the LT5....
Mine has 68,427 miles now and really feeling good about itself, especially with the secondaries and vacuum issues resolved.......woohoo!!!

I hope you guys realize how lucky you are to have so many knowledgeable members close enough to get together and do things like that... Some of us are stuck in ZR-1 desert land... The FBI bunch is the closest to me but still 5 hours away. Not like I can just scoot up there.. I'm gonna have to do something though to figure out my vibration that I have never been able to diagnose..

I see......it appears to me you have the Black Hoses from inside of Injector Housings and Red Hoses from top of each Injector Housing Coolant Manifolds back to the Coolant Reservoir. Making sure you get all the air out of the top end of the Coolant System. The Black and Red hoses are connected to the same Coolant Pathway within the Injector Housings but on opposite sides.

Thanks for the Photos
