Got started today..

Man....Took us 1 hour and 15 minutes to get the old headers out. Not bad. Of course, they weren't attached to anything, so that did help.

Got down to the crankshaft bolt, and removing the cam. I don't have a good enough pulley puller for the job, so that might have to wait until next weekend, depending on if I can get a puller. Once the cam is out, I will disconnect all the sensors and such and try to get the LS1 out. Doesn't look like it will be too difficult from the bottom.

Pics........






Wonder if these are better headers.....
The Kooks are the bottom ones.....much lighter as well.

Those headers look tons better than the prior set. Looks like it'll be exhaling alot easier than it had with all that loopy plumbing installed before.

Re: Got started today..

Yeah....had fun today actually. I truely enjoy ripping this car apart, even though I probably shouldn't.


Update......


Got the crank pulley off, removed the rocker arms, and got the pushrods out. Cam can come out in about 20 minutes now. Just needs a buyer.

And I have all sorts of parts laying on the garage floor....





And because the fucking crank pulley was a bitch.....
