Squirrelly Dan: Coheed's 86 Custom

[coheed]

Pulling the 2.8 wasn't a huge deal.

 

 

But the hoist couldn't get quite tall enough to get the 3.4 in. I swapped the trailers wheels with 235/75r15s on, and even then I had to deflate them to about 5 psi to get enough to get it in. I probably should've taken the header panel off but 

 

 

Regardless, the 3.4 and 4L60e are in the truck. Bolted up the NP242 today and started working on the transmission mount, more on that later.

 

 

Looks like a decent angle for the engine to rest at. Need to measure driveshaft angles before I finish the trans mount.

 

 

I didn't plan on pulling the dash twice this year, but here we are. It'll help with the wiring and let me fix some routing I wasn't crazy about from after the floor replacement.

 

 

I can't stand wiring but, I think I'm done with the wiring aside from routing it on the truck and doing the crossover between harnesses at the ignition switch and the brake switch. I took the engine bay harness from the truck in the house and eliminated all the unnecessary stuff like the starter, a/c, and carb/emissions related things. 

 

 

I should be done with the Camaro harness as well aside from the routing and crossover parts.
