also i had to drop the tran because i used the wrong bolts to hook up the flywheel spacer to the back of the motor. so i dropped the trans and installed the new bolts.

also theres a shot of one of the holes i had to make longer to make the 5.3 flywheel work with my older 4l60.
i also ordered the vacuum adapter fitting from gmpartsgiant.com..the part was only like 4 bucks but they charge 11 bucks for shipping and once i got the package i seen why...they used this huge box wirth a huge envelope inside to ship a part no bigger than a AA battery smh!

Woooohoooo making some progress myzterray! Glad to see it all coming together.
oh yea...home stretch..gotta wait on lt1firehawk to let me use his hoist again so i can pull the engine back out bolt up the trans and drop it back in there. i was trying to bolt the trans up in there last night but couldnt get it leveled and lined up. so i figure grap the hoist...less frustration. all thats left is...fuel lines..starter fluids and pcm.Quote:

What is that vacuum adapter fitting? I've never seen anyone mention that in their build thread
Looks like the one for the intake manifold to the brake booster. His engine probably came from a truck with hydroboost which would have just had the plug version of that fitting.
