kool,,,

 

Got the master cylinder brace back from being powder coated! Gonna clean up the engine bay before installing it tho.

 

Got the oil pump drive gear in the mail today! And my AEM Wideband came in two days ago! Getting closer. Just waiting on the camshaft and a new flywheel!

 

you gonna pick up a aluminum housing, I didnt trust the plastic https://www.tickperformance.com/tick...r-lt1-engines/

 

I need to get an aluminum housing but my budget is blown. I can’t even afford a new flywheel at the moment lol. I’ll try to order one before putting it all back together but it may just get the plastic one put back in lol

 

is see they got more expensive. like everything else,,, its tough just to get parts and gaskets nowadays,

 

True true!

 

Well the camshaft finally came in! And I got my wideband put in the pillar pod and ready to be installed. Now I just gotta pick up a flywheel and possibly a billet oil pump drive housing.

 

Finally got the last piece of the puzzle. Time to start assembly! If I ever get some free time lol.

 

Nice, moving right along. Fyi, the fail point on the oil pump drive housing is the mounting hole splitting open, sometimes caused by horsing the bolt down (a little past snug is good). Wicked used to make a reinforcement plate that goes on top of the housing to help prevent stress from cracking the mount. Given your skills, I'm sure you could make one, costing you next to nothing other than a little bit of fab time. Put that $150 where it counts.
