Looking good fellas!! How was the install with the trans in? I contemplated leaking it but opted to drop it for the install of the motor with the idear it was easier to manipulate the trans rather than the motor....

At any rate love to see this build coming together!!


And I can't say it enough, thanks again for helping out bro and donating your stock crank! :adore::canada:

~ 13 hour in and out swap. Plenty of breaks, beer, and no power tools.

So in other words, Torspd is a magician at getting coaxing trannies in the hole? :laugh::laugh:

On a serious note, congrats. Can't wait to see your truck up and running :top:

That behemoth is 4.5" thick!

Only thing "missing" from his setup, is a catch can.

Can't wait to see the time lapse pictures, he captured during the process.

As well as when the AEM is installed and tuned.
