| Not expecting alot of volunteers but figured I'd give it a shot. I'm looking to pull the lt1 and trans from my caddy this weekend. Would go alot quickah with extra hands (maybe, depending on if those hands hold wrenches) Or you can come and watch/ laugh at me while I do it. Still lots of parts in my garage. Maybe you'll spot something ya need It's all b/d body stuff or 73-87 c10 stuff but ya never know. If there gets to be any real interest I'll pick the day that the most ppl can make. I live way out... It's a drive Thanks for reading. | |

| Don't have to be this weekend. You can come check out c10 stuff anytime you want. I have mint set of front fender wells I wanna see leave and I have a set of hooker long tube headers, mirrors, gauge bezels, grilles, few other things. It's a small stash. There's also a low mile 305 engine i'd like to sell as well as a low mile 700r4 (4l60) I'm a motivated seller | |

| Oh he was out on the porch the whole time watching me break my back and get cut up. I think he's scared of me lol. Came out as one whole piece... Engine/accessories/exhaust/trans/wiring/hoses/etc. Was too heavy to roll in the driveway and I had to stop and take some stuff off midway down the driveway. Took the trans off and the torque converter dumped a quart of fluid all over the place. Funny the whole day while pulling I didn't get a single drop of fluid on the ground, 2 minutes from packing up and I make a mess.
Degreasing is to commence this week, I see alot of oil in the back and in the front, Probably gonna need intake, oil pan, rear main, front seals at the least. I saw a complete lt1 gasket set on eBay for like $165. I might just buy a complete set and do them all while it's out and getting cleaned. | |

| Might as well get it all out of the way. No sense in putting it in and THEN doing gaskets, lol.
But what do I know. I let the front seal on the LDM leak everywhere.... | |
