Re: 1973 K20 Build Thread

The transmission lines were a mangled mess so I bought a new set from Classic Industries. They fit really well and I opted to go with the original material as opposed to the stainless steel ones due to the price difference. I pretty much work on this thing as time allows and in short spurts, and now with daylight savings I'm going to have to use the shop lights more.

Here I have reinstalled the balancer, water pump, routed the wire harness down to the starter, installed the valve covers, and the new fuel pump (not visible).

I also rattle canned the frame with black semi-gloss Rustoleum. I prefer semi gloss over gloss because the semi gloss hides imperfections in the surface while gloss brings them out. Only problem with Rustoleum is that it takes a long time to dry.

I wrapped the transmission lines with 3/8" fuel line and tie wraps where the 2 lines touch. I also changed the transmission oil filter and gasket.
