So my head gaskets went...whats new....and ive decided to do a complete rebuild. Spent 320 on a complete rebuild kit with new pistons im excited for. Of course i have a leaky, greasy pos. power steering so ive bought a power steering rebuild kit, and also a gearbox rebuild kit. Bought a new pressure line as well.

I Just replaced most of my intake lines, 16ft and still more to get. I have cleaned and painted my starter, and completed the rebuld for my power steering pump. While everyhting is out i degreased my entire engine bay and did a re-wrap on the wiring harness, that made a huge difference and looks great now. I just pulled the gear box out today, and after buying a few more tools ill be cleaning that up as well.

I still have to get my block and heads cleaned, but a plethera of hoses, and i plan on pulling my tranny out to have new seals in it. Lots more to do and alot more $ to spend. But ill tell u what, better to spend a grand the two.

 

So far, complete shortblock, new pasenger head, old p.o.s. cracked between all valves, and tranny is droped.

Right now im looking into gears.....
i have 32's, r105f tranny, and 4.56 gears

im looking into runing 4.88 or 5.29.... anyone help?

i plan on keeping the 32's now, maby later on if i lift it ill put 35's but for now just 32's

 

so far ive put the rear diff back 2gether, but having troubles puting the driver side driveshaft back in. Is there anything special i need to do 2 get it in?

Ive also replaced the front seal on the tranny and the rear transfercase seal, painted the tranny black and bell housing aluminum. looks good

Im puting the power steering gear box back 2gether now and next i have to take my driver side head into the shop 2 have the valves laped.

The shop wanted 2 grand to rebuild the motor, i say how abt 2 grand to redo the entire drivetrain mark one point up for me haha.
