Chris, remember when you asked what you should do with that 5.3? Stick it in that Power Wagon that was in front of the shop. That would be the coolest project ever!

I'm shooting for the end of the month to have the engine finished. I'm just picking up parts as I find them for the right price. We'll just have to see.

Also, until we finish the transmission the engine is gonna just sit there, so I guess that means I'm not in a hurry.

Nitto 555r is 275/40/17. Two in very good condition. $150.

Still in the market for a car hauler or nice utility trailer.

I hope by June or so everyone's stuff is running good enough to make a good track turnout, or just a meet. I wanna see what everyone else here does to their cars.

Yeah I will be. The tires are in excellent shape. Lots of tread on them. I will have to have them dismounted from the rims though.

99+ PCM and harness(Looking into a company that custom makes them, new, they're about the same price as a used stock one)
Power steering pump, bracket, steering rack, and steering knuckle.
Flexplate, TCI preferred.
Tensioner Pulley.
Oil pan gasket.
Possibly a valley cover gasket, not sure if my gen III one will work with my gen IV cover.
Throttle cable bracket, regular throttle cable.
Oil dipstick and tube, trans dipstick and tube.
Gen IV crank position sensor.
2004+ Headbolts.
A 2 into 1 corvette fuel regulator.
LS2/LS3/LS7 Lifter trays, I can't find these anywhere except GMPD.
O2 sensors.
I'm planning on ordering a set of ebay stainless longtubes, they go for $170 shipped. But if I find a local set cheaper than that I may go for those instead.

I may be picking up some head bolts and a oil pan gasket tomorrow though.

If I have time and money to spare, I'd like to get a billet torque converter as well.

Oh, and miscellaneous bolts, lots of them.
I've got 2 '99 pcms I can let go for $100 each. Both have recently been Tech 2 reflashed at the gm dealership.

For your O2 sensors, if you ask for the REAR O2 Sensors for a 2002 Corvette, you will not need to buy any extensions if you are running headers. They are extremely long. Just fyi.
