Got the engine pulled up and out and got it primed. Hopefully it's not windy tomorrow and she gets paint.

Got the engine fully sanded and ready for paint, went ahead and tried polishing the transmission a little and it works like a champ! Need to find some rattle can clear that will last so I can keep it looking that way.

I went ahead and completely pulled the engine... Wasn't happy with trying to do it in the frame rails. Also painted a small spot on the frame with POR to see how it was going to look, happy with it but I'll probably go ahead and do bed liner on top of it.

@Garbage_Mechan do you have any pics of how you did your firewall

 

[Garbage_Mechan]

Have photos of every detail just need to get in the habit of posting. Something I never had time for before lately. Since you asked maybe I’ll figure it out.

This should tell you how much grease was on this thing... This was just under the steering box. It was solid between the oil pan and crossmember.

With that much grease, you'll never find any better waterproofing than that.

 

[Ilovelamp]

Lol unfortunately I'm too much of a spaz to leave it there!

 

[Ilovelamp]

A little farther...
