Here is the updated info on my 87 GMC project

[Z97_Silverado]

I finally was able to start up on the old girl again and this is what i have done to her since the first batch of pics i posted like forever ago lol.

Finally rewired the whole engine compartment!!!!, yes Im givin me a thimbs up cuz that sucks ass and I got everything to work first try and with no fires.

Swapped out the Hydro boost brake system for the conventional Vac Boost system.

Installed my NEW 355 CID Vortec, (I ran outta cash or it woulda been a 383 vortec engine but that will have to happen this winter i guess)and NEW B&M TH350 with a Stage 2 shift kit.

Im waiting to get my custom mounting bracket for my B&M Slap Shifter back from my buddy whos welding it up for me cuz i cannot weld to save my ass lol

Removed the old exhaust

Replaced the axle seals

Shoes and Pads and Calipers complete with Stainless Steel Braided lines

Installed a Electric fuel pump with a painless fuel pump relay kit.

New Rad with a B&M Tranny Cooler

Removed fuel tanks to get flushed and checked for any problems, once i get them back I will decide if I will use 1 of them or just get a fuel cell for it.

Here's the pics, they go from newest to oldest, i dont know y but thats how they are....

Nicely done . Once you have the drivetrain done, its on to paint and interior .

Nice job, that engine compartment has come a long ways since you started. No more dirt piled on the engine. Looks nice with the cleaned up wiring, new motor and braided hoses.

Looking good.

Rewireing sucks big time, but it must be done.

Thanks, it was alot of work, the wiring was terrible and a major headache, the hoses were a last minute decision but I think they add to the overall appearance, once the chrome inner fenders show up it will look even better.
