Thank you!! I consider this more of an "everyman's build" compared to some of the awesome full frame off show builds on here. I am a novice in all arenas of car building, but I sure do enjoy learning along the way!


Managed to swap the water pump over the past few days...

Out with the old. It had been weeping pretty steadily out of the weep hole. Let's be honest, it was a straight stream of coolant shooting from the weep hole! The seals were shot.

And in with the new... It doesn't match the pretty orange, but oh well. A couple of challenges, the alternator bracket mount was offset by about an inch, so i needed new hardware. swapped in a new belt and lower rad hose while i was at it. Other than that it went in smooth. Fired it up and so far so good no leaks!.
