good luck

 

Ok, so today I put the new intake in after painting it, new gaskets ofcourse, also replaced both radiator hoses, took pics if anyone wants to see, still gotta do the water pump tomorrow though, got it all apart, just gotta get the pump and install it and I also got a window seal kit for the doors and installed them.

*water pump done now also. no more leaks

 

Does anyone know alot about wheel fitment? I have a few questions. I want some new wheels, and i found some that look good and will look good with any paint etc. until I get ready for expensive wheels, however I have no clue what to look for in backspacing and the like. The wheels I'm looking to get are available in 15x7, 15x8 and 15x10, im aiming at the 15x8s, all are 5x4.75 bolt pattern. 15x8 specs area as following: 3.750" backspacing, -19.00mm offset and 3.300" center bore...any issues I should know about?
15x7s:3.750" or 4.500", -6.00mm or +12.00mm, 3.300"
15x10s:4.000", -38.00mm, 3.300"

 

UPDATE: motor mounts, harmonic balancer, cap, rotor, plugs and wires all replaced, new tires on rear, truck is running smoother now, with the exception of the idle, it idles a little funny, not misfiring, but idles funny. Dad isnt worried about it as it isn't misfiring and isnt causing any issues other than sometimes annoying me. My brother has a 305 roller long block for me in his garage as he wants my 4.3 for his luv, he says he can get me a camaro donor car for parts for $100 so i can ****** the trans, rear end and any other parts i may need or want off it. the 305 will suffice while i gather funds for the final swap (lsx and t56 with 9" narrowed rear)
