Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

Yeah I don’t know WTF happened- it was all smooth right after I sprayed it...

Don't try to blame it on that damned UPOL #1 again.

There’s always that one damn bolt left over when you complete a project like this.

X100! Put it in the spare bolt coffee can with the rest of them.

You mean one of these?

Hard to judge the size, but it looks like one of the black 10mm bolts that secure the plastic wire harness mount to the front side of the oil pan or cooler lines on the side or plastic flexplate covers (but you'd know if one of those were missing). But if it's a 14mm or 15mm...

I let it cool down, noticed the coolant level in the tank dropped way down so it must have burped itself. Added another 2/3 gallon and now it stays right at 195* according to the Tech2. Supposed to be 194 so I think that’s close enough.

It’s just one of the hundreds of 10 mm bolts that go everywhere. I checked everything over a couple times but can’t find where it goes. Probably holds something in place in an out of the way spot. I’m not worried. If I hear a rattle I’ll know I guess.

At least it’s not at 197*, then you might have a problem! Great job on getting just about everything taken cared of, except for that 1 bolt!

No. The job is incomplete and this is now a game.

It looks black on my screen- is it?

Could it be one of the three that hold the engine cover mount to the intake manifold?
