Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

Nice work don...i was hoping for some updates! While i'm thinkin about it...what differential fluid will you be using?

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

80/90 castrol, do you have a preference?

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

The powdercoating looks great!

I read the entire thread for about the 3rd time looking for this, so forgive me if its been answered.

Where did you get the engine stands, mounts, and adapters from?

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

A lot of guys are using synthetic and was wandering?

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

ok will do, do you have a brand prefrence, and pennzoil is not a option!!!!

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

I wanna say use synthetic as i believe that's what was in it...but i'll check with my guy who filled it and let you know what was in it before u drained it!;)

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

Fantastic progress on this build, as usual. I am quite envious of how that frame looks.

Re: Killers 5.3L install
 

Looks nice. I might have to plan another stop by your place to check it out:sexy:
