For anyone who was curious of where my engine is and why its taking so long here is the worksheet from Godwin Singer (Machine shop in St pete been around since 1940's)

Disassembly of Engine (heads, oil pan, front cover, flywheel, motor mount etc)
R&R cam bearings + freeze plugs
clean block
hone cylinder to new piston specs
install main studs, line hone mains
degree deck block
eliminate balance shaft
Balance job on crank shaft (Done by the famous George Pills, Southern Pride Racing Engines Famous on the east coast)
Polish Crankshaft
check all eng clearance's ring gaps etc
assemble short block
degree camshaft
modify timing coverf/timing chain
rebuild oil pump
assemble cyl heads (rockers, pushrods, ck lifter specs
re assembler timing cover- oil pump- RR crank seal oil pan, harmonic balancer, flywheel etc.

Total of about 18.7 hours of labor (Normal Rate for Godwin singer is $75/HR)

But he is contributing some labor hours and a special price to the build.

Also I need alittle bit of advice, I am replacing the rubber brake hoses with stainless steel lines (already have them including the 5th brake line)

BUT the Brake HARDLINES that run all the way to the master cylinder are pretty much not ever coming off the rubber lines (bolt is stripped beyond repair) so i remoeved the lines all the way to the MC and took them off the car, i am going to need a replacement set OEM or aftermarket is fine can anyone recommend a good replacement option?

Links are golden...

[Spartan GL]

also i know of the Buy it and bend the line yourself option.. but i'd prefer a pre-bent solution

[Spartan GL]

GM Part # 10335973 for the driver side i think... can someone confirm this to be the right part? also need the passenger side and more then likely the rears too

[Kejross]

Buy a bunch of stainless line, bend and fit, and then polish to a mirror...

Just kidding, if it were me I would go to my local pullapart and pull what I needed and get it all for about $20

That is an option but I'm afraid ill run into the same problem with the bolt pretty much not coming off the old hose..

I'm going to see what the dealership has to offer when they open in the morning (or atleast get solid part #'s from them)

if that fails.. there is a hydraulic shop kinda near my shop that ive been told can make me some lines

[Kejross]

I just checked all over AllData and found the flex lines about 5 times but no hard line part numbers I saw

[Kejross]

And if the **** don't come off right and look good I move on to the next car, I love pullapart. Your using flare wrenches on all the brake fittings too right?

[matt5112]

I was told stainless requires a special flare compared to mild steel.

[Spartan GL]

yeah but the flare wrenches was still stripping the nut... i think they just have seen alittle too much road lol (car was in ohio first 60k of its life..) and its around 135k on the body and brake lines..

[SeanGTP]

Break the bolt off, drill it out, thread in a new bolt?

P/N 10335973 is the pipe for the RIGHT side. The LEFT side is P/N 10425230. As far as the Rear is concerned, it looks like GM's solution is bulk line. The only thing they show is 3/16" x 20' roll. I can come up with P/N's for the rear hoses, but no pre-bent metal pipes.

Oh, I misunderstood; I thought you wanted the lines that actually hook up in the rear of the car, not to the ABS Pump. The rear line numbers you gave are good from the pump to about 1/2 way towards the back of the car, according to the catalog. Guess I should have drank more coffee and waken up before I posted; sorry man.

Those are some smokin prices for those p/n's. Nice find....
