Can't remember and rave wasn't clear, does the water pump go on first then the accessories? Don't want to do double work if I can help it. Thanks in advance.

 

Does not matter

 

The adapters do unscrew from OEM rad

 

Wont work. GM has different size.

 

Got the valve covers on, plug wires connected, heater hoses connected, throttle body hooked back up, and condenser fan back in. Plenum and accessories will go on tomorrow.

 

Power steering pump is on, a/c comp is on, water pump is on (minus pulley/fan), oil dipstick is installed/added o-ring to it. Alternator will go on last once I got radiator permantly fitted and hooked up. I also added an extra ground cable from the battery to the block. Picked up the GM fittings I needed for the EOC & TOC to the new rad from my local dismantler (pick n pull). Even picked up some radiator hoses, hydraulic hoses, rad cap and spare heater hoses. $14 for everything (with military discount)! She's almost done... Cant do any work on her today as I got some nerves burnt in my back at the Naval hospital this morning... Hopefully tomorrow I'm up for it. Just need to make a little more clearance for the rad cap and tighten every thing up in the cooling system so I can fire her up.

 

Well she's all done! Fired right up. No codes or smoke. Did have a slight tick but it went away after idling a few minutes. ZERO coolant leaks! Zero fuel leaks! Lower oil cooler hose did leak a little but it's because the hose clamp wasn't tight enough. Had me scared. Lol. New a/c fan motor is running perfect too. GM style Cooling system conversion is working great! Too great/efficient. Lol. Was running 160-165*F (obd port) after idling and driving around for over an hour. Gonna throw in a higher temp t-stat to get the temp up. No complaints here! Lol. Throttle response is phenomenal and engine is running way way smoother. Very pleased. Pics/video to come.

 

Glad it worked out for you, should make it a much more enjoyable vehicle, track the mileage I want to see how you do

 

So in the end what 4.6 parts did you use?

Looks like crank and rods plus changed injectors

 

And new crank bearings.

She's running great.
