Message: [QUOTE="Garbage_Mechanic, post: 1514443, member: 1610"] Here's the while I'm here list so far: Pull inner fenderwells to get rid of deteriorated fiberglass sound blankets Pull core support to replace with one with no cracks. Paint frame up to firewall. Remove everything including steering box Push back firewall so no more BS with down pipe and up pipes. Build reinforcement plates for cracks in firewall after getting a bit carried away.. we'll see when the engine is in but I estimate you can at least put your whole hand between the firewall and everything. Dismantle AC box and clean out (Yuck!! Highly recommended) Move vacuum reservoir for more valve cover clearance, cover AC box in sound deadener / heat reflector Clean out cowl and vent areas, clean seal paint cowl with Mastercoat. (POR but better) RUST was staring under failed butyl. In a CA truck. Replace all the tired butyl sealant in firewall. Lube all wiper parts with penetrating spray gel teflon grease Fix washer nozzle Install power steering cooler in prep for hydroboost. Install RSK (had it for some time why not no engine weight walk right up to it to work) Install sway bars front and rear New cab mounts. Install electric fuel. Incorporate existing extra fuse and relay spots to make factory looking install. Using 2 stock SD pumps in parellell set up for redundant back up. Going Irate T4 and installing intercooler so that goes in on the way back. Considering reworking to put AC condenser in front of IC since 100 degrees is common for us. Working on a custom Donaldson Statopore air filter (huge) Installing valve covers backwards for intake to valve cover breather clearance. Custom oil fill set up to allow above Linex Valve Covers just to see if it quiets injector solenoid noise. Jet Hot coat the manifolds and turbine housing. Working on a 2 speed eddy current drive electric fan clutch Installing US Gear exhaust brake. Dissassemble, clean and re wrap wire looms Probably forgot a few things...... [/QUOTE]
