Got some more done on the radiator hoses. I had to modify the thermostat housing and put the inlet on the opposite side.

Finally got some time to work on this project some more.

 

Built some custom fuel line fittings

 

Got the fuel lines all ran

 

Got the clutch all hooked up with a stainless line

 

Will be building a snorkle for this since i have to do a custom intake anyways.

The start of the snorkle

 

My inline air filter for the snorkle

 

I couldnt figure out how to get rid of both the tranny computer and the ecm so i ordered a complete Painless Wiring harness

I originally bought my '89 to do the OM617 swap to. I decided not to do it as when I bought the truck it only had 130k miles... When I get out of school I will probably swap one in...

 

Anyway, awesome work. Very clean swap if I do say so myself. Do you have any idea on what your costs were for the swap?
