Re: Finally starting my 5.3 swap!!

Well today I had to get a little creative and make spacers for the fuse block using some adapters for a radiator. I took out a pin in the shifter mechanism so the shifter can run through all 4 gears and changed the selector display thing. still have to mount the linkage. Im havin a little issue...I ran the wiring into the truck that powers up the fuel pump and all and when I turned the key everything powered up but the engine wont crank over so I gotta figure out whats goin on...this is why I hate wiring. Also I have to run the wiring for the brake light...its supposed to connect to the brake switch on the pedal but I don't see the wires for it...I have to look more closely n see. my buddy said we have to have it running and driving by Friday. The driveshaft will be here tomorrow.
