I wish I could give a realistic ETA on getting the car running. I changed everything this time around and I'm paying the price. It has been a chore to get it put back together!

The car finally runs- video of first startup with the 6.0 & 4L80e. There are some massive fuel leaks that have to be taken care of (replacing fuel rails) before I can do much else. The video is terrible, but I was so happy that it runs that I didn't care!

I have a bunch of small stuff on order to get this thing all buttoned up. The fuel leak has to be stopped so I can let it run long enough to test the transmission. I hope like hell it works. Im always skeptical of a brand new drivetrain. ;-) The engine has good oil pressure, that's huge step in the correct direction!

This is the next project. I found 2 holes in the top 2 rows of the current radiator. I have no clue how I managed to put them there, but it leaks either way.
