Re: 1978 Chevy K20 longbed with nearly 500,000 miles! LS Swap begins!

After a few test fits with the exhaust reducers, I determined they weren’t going to work. So, I ended up just ordering a new, cheap MAF sensor to be the adapter. At $25, the quality definitely wasn’t there for its intended purpose, but since I’m not using it for anything other than an adapter, it’ll work just fine.



Installed! The intake is finally done!



I also made the electric fan harness, which runs to the battery and will be controlled by the Terminator X.







And finally, the (just about) complete engine bay!



At this point, I believe the to-do list has gotten pretty short.
I know I still need:

• New front and rear driveshafts made
• Install O2 sensor
• Run wiring for and install rear speakers and dome light
• Install new glove box door
• Diagnose non-functional oil pressure gauge (pretty sure it’s the gauge itself)
• Shim master cylinder from hydroboost
• Eventually go through the front axle and steering components
• New tires

Getting close!
