So I have gotten some progress made on the Suburban.
I got the outside firewall insulation cut and installed, made a paper template and transferred it to the insulation. Took some time to turn the 3d shape of the non flat portions of the firewall into 2d sections I could cut out and fold/fit up. Taped all the raw edges of the insulation with seaming tape to seal it up. In addition to the firewall, I ran the same insulation down the first four feet of the underbody/transmission tunnel using rivets and washers to attach.
Got the exhaust manifolds, engine mounts, and other odds and ends on the optimizer engine, and got it installed in the engine bay. Got the clutch and other parts installed, and bolted the NV4500 transmission up. Had to replace the input seal on the transfer case, got that completed so it is ready to go now.
I need to figure out all the details for the wiring and a few other odds and ends and the Suburban will be ready for a test drive.
