My transmission oil cooler hard lines are in pretty poor shape. Decided to replace them with AN6 fittings and braided hose. I've already installed a 40K cooler. Ordered the required fittings and hardware to make this happen from the transmission to the cooler. Deciding whether I do this during the engine swap or prior.

Update from shipping show's that my roller rockers should arrive on Thursday. This weekend I will verify the required pushrod lengths and get them ordered. I will also start installing all the other components I've been ordering for this build.

Still a few more things to purchase but definitely getting closer:
1. Circle D torque converter
2. Plugs and wires
3. Oil and Coolant
4. Knock Sensor Harness
5. Could end up buying a water pump, not sure though. I will check my spread sheet and see how many miles I have on the current one.
6. Heater hose firewall connectors - believe it or not the original ones are still on the truck. Time to get those changed once the engine is out of the vehicle.

Still need to receive my updated tune from Black Bear Performance. Should be within the next week or two.
