Oedipus Wreckx-n-Effect

Even though my engine SAYS it's a 1999, it looks like there isn't the standard 1999-2000 issue with the 4.8's that had an extension on it. Like this.

This means that I can hopefully use a normal flywheel from a 2001 and up. Thank goodness.

AC Delco is made in china, but it's at least checked once or twice before it leaves the factory. 

Delphi is checked three times. 

I just picked up a new clutch kit and I'm shopping for a flywheel currently.

A lot of the Democratic hopefuls are trying to one-up each other on gun control in a desperate arms race of relevancy. 

Anyone want to imagine the clusterfuck a nation wide buy back program would be?

Wonder if he'll be mourned by the left.

Did it come with its computer, and will all your gauges and shit work?  I see you got ACDelco parts, and cheaper stuff, smart.  

No computer or anything. Paid 250 bucks for the engine. But my truck's computer can work with it I believe. Swapping everything out with AC Delco or Delphi for what counts. Waiting on an alternator/power steering bracket to arrive so I can finish with the accessories.
 

I'm still researching exactly what I'll need to mate up the transmission. I think I just need to swap out the flywheel, but it might also need a different throw-out bearing. 

My current Wiring harness can be cut to work with this engine as well.

Nice! 

 How many miles does it have on it?   

 

The new parts look so out of placed. Its funny to think that thing is pushing 20 years. 

Engine has 143k miles on it. It's from a 1999 GMC Sierra. Early series Ls engine. Just what I was looking for to stick in my 1996 chassis/1995 body Silverado GMT400.

*Snore*

Does bugatti have an AMERICAN PUSHROD ENGINE? I THINK NOT.

Speaking of. Plugs, EGR delete, and water pump got  swapped out yesterday. Still waiting on my power steering/alternator bracket. @Jeeps_Guns_Tanks

Just dropped a ton of cash on new accessories for the engine. It's gonna be like car-geek christmas come next week.

A 4.8L LR4 Ls series engine out of a 1999 GMC Sierra is arriving at my house next week. 

Pics to come.

Gonna stick this here because domestic terrorism is a bitch.

I'm really happy that the fresh batch of senators and congressmen the left put all their chips in are so incredibly bad at lying.

What happens when Google Fiber gives up and fucks off?

That's very interesting. I'd like to see their initial tests and what changed. 

Walmart has done more for Target's stock than Target. 

I like moo's font, but Toxn's submission could kill so many feral hogs... This is going to be a tough one.

Trump is now also pushing for red flag laws. 

Cruz and Crenshaw appear to be caving on red flag laws. 

Ohio shooter information.

I'm ok with this.

Antifa false flag?

 

Writing a BS manifesto is easy enough, but that's not the most likely scenario.

Bullshit source and shit. Probably just a few random tweets at the core of it. Like I said, whispers.

So the El Paso shooter seems to be yet another Breivik copycat in the vein Christchurch, Poway, Pittsburgh, etc.

Another mass shooting in Dayton, Ohio. 

 

Antifa has whispered about operations leading up to this. I don't like the coincidence.
