So, I’m getting ready to start on another shop so I actually have room to work around here. That means the swap will slow down for a while. I’ll pick at it when I can. I did score an awesome deal on some 35” STT pro’s so I treated it to new wheels too.
I will use a flapper wheel and sand them bare. Then a couple coats of zero rust. It is a converter like por15. I've had real good luck with that in the past.
Just wrapping up a 2wd to 4wd swap on an 89 sport truck. Essentially it is a bolt in swap. As far as the issues of replacing the renix with an H. O. Engine, retain the renix intake and exhaust. The longblock is a direct swap. Swap over the renix sending units as well.
