Re: Wtf did i get myself into 51 s10 swap

Hey guys nothing really exciting moved to a new house so I've been busy with remodeling there. Finally got some time to work on the truck a little.

Last time I checked in I was just finishing up shaving the firewall.
Now the firewall is stripped down to bare metal and ready for a skim coat and blocking.

Started digging into the motor really don't want to spend the money to have it rebuilt so we will see how it checks out. Plugged up every hole and soaked it in oven cleaner on a sunny day then pressure washed it which worked amazing.

Pulled the cast iron intake manifold off, pulled the cracked starter, pulled the dented oil pan. Sigh of relief when the pan came off and I see the 4 bolt mains, I've had this motor sitting around over a year and never pulled the pan to check.
