Wow - you guys wheren't kidding, this isn't a fun job...

 

Got it all apart tonight, and most of the oil cleaned up - going to start putting it together tomorrow.

 

Since it this far, going to maybe replace the spark plugs - the ones in there now are AC Delco R42LTSM - do you think they might be the ones from the factory still?

combo of RTV and Small Block Diss gasket

 

not sure if the gasket will be too thick?

you should be just fine. that ought to hold up good.

Its all done - it run's.... :biggrin:

 

Mine is a 96, and I think I'm going to post some pictures cause everything I seen from before doing this was of the pre 95 LQ1 and I think there is way more things to take a part - and way more vac lines in the way.

 

At the same time, since the intake was off I did put in some new plugs - chose something different... Champion iridium - once I get some miles on it I'll let you all know how they are holding up.
