MOTOR IS IN

BEFORE:


AFTER:


Have not fired it up yet , still got some small things finished.

 

I am using the 4.6 torque converter. It will not last too long especially when I put the blower back on but a built tranny will be on its way soon!

 

at least you'll put more power to the ground until the trans lets loose 9if you haven't already done so now is the time for a shift kit)

the navi intake looks good without the plastic cover and will look better with the snail under the hood again

 

SWEETNESS! Now I know what mine will look like when i get it done!

 

That's the ugliest manifold I ever seen - cover that up But it's bad a$$... I seen one for sale on ebay last weekend..Sweet install, that trucks going to fly.

 

FIRED IT UP TONIGHT Runs really smooth! sounds a bit like a tractor so its off to the muffler shop in the morning. It ran a bit fat running the 60# injectors N/A and heated up the driver side cat that it was glowing red , but leaned it out 30% and all is fine. So after the exhaust has been welded up , I can get the tune dialed in better.

 

Is that cat alright ?

 

Don't know but will see when the exhaust gets modified.

 

Yea , they usually won't glow unless there plugged or close to it. After all the work you have done, you don't want a restriction like that. I would swap them out if I seen it get that hot..If it got that hot in there , the cat cone can melt together making matters worse. - I've seen it.

 

Where did you get your deal on your Navi Engine.. im lookin to pick one up aswell.

 

if its any help, i got mine off ebay for $500, plus $300 to ship from Fla. In great condition too

im not to sure how long that stock short block will last with the higher compression motor and hes boosting it
