Re: My Fall/ winter Project Thread

Rear suspension is all back together (sans shocks) and the fuel tank is in/ lines hooked up.. so as soon as I get the PCM back it should run. Ordering the headders in the next week, and need to hook up the oil press/ water temp gauges. Then I will address the F&R swaybars and the shocks.


Tanks is in, and you can see the U bolts replacing the "t" bolts for the multi-leaf swap..

Re: My Fall/ winter Project Thread

Got the headers/collectors installed today, and re-installed the hood. Spent most of the morning replacing the front wheel speed sensors in the silverado, so ran out of time to do more.

Re: My Fall/ winter Project Thread

Got more done today, adjusted the colum linkage, added new shift indicator with proper markings. I installed the new swaybar and wired up the oil press and water temp gauges. Also installed the fuel rail covers.

Re: My Fall/ winter Project Thread

I actually like the corvette covers in there, looks sweet.

I think I've finally decided on my first Mod for the Goat this spring. I know you'll laugh, but I love the solenoid cut-outs. Can ride quiet or be outrageously loud if I want. Just a small project to start I guess.
