Just a little update. Finally picked up the heads from the machine shop. I read about some of the 706 heads being crappy Castechs that tend to crack unfortunately I do have them. I'll run them til they crack. Wish I would've known about that before I dropped $400 at the machine shop. Monday, I'm ordering LS7 lifters at work. Next weekend, I can tighten the heads down with the ARP head studs and LS9 headgaskets.

I did get prices for a 4L80e. The cheapest I found them going for, was $650 shipped from Florida to Milwaukee. Think I might go 4L80 instead. Just wish I had an extra $650 laying around.

Well one of my turbos showed up this past Wednesday. Been doing little misc things on the truck, fuel system is out along with the exhaust. Haven't had much time to work on the truck though. Had to buy a new daily driver in November so that's where most of my spare money is going. I'm hopefully buying more motor parts the end of this month. I did realize the previous owner was an idiot and glued the connectors in the black box on the trans.
