So it’s been awhile since I’ve updated this. I’ve been having a terrible time getting stuff. My wife’s school (and where our kids go) went to distance learning for 2 weeks. There have been a few cases across the campus and they had no choice. My son tested positive. He’s doing ok so far.
So I had ordered a matching gen 4 harness and pcm. That’s not gonna work. So I ordered a stand-alone LS1 harness that was labeled dbc. But it’s a dbw. So I ordered another harness and the correct 12200411 pcm and sent it to Brendan at lt1swap.com for programming.
Here I’ve been able to get the balancer back on. I had to order a 1157-0163 ls7 ($20 Chevy dealer) crank bolt and used about 8-10 1/2” washers to push that thing on. You’ll need someone with a breaker bar on the flywheel.
My plan for the coils won’t work either so I’m thinking of fabbing a bracket to go here or just screw them to transom. Thoughts? I’m making custom plug wires via a msd kit.
And here is what the raw water pump looks like when it is bolted down via bracket and crank bolt connector through marine engine depot.com
Well now I’m stuck at home for another 9 days until we all get tested. Eagerly awaiting the harness and parts. Guess I’ll do some glass work and painting as weather permits.
