What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2022]

To retrofit the TBI stuff to a Vortec truck, you'll be deleting the rear wheel ABS which you didn't even pull I don't think. To thread that single rear line directly into the proportioning valve you're going to need an adapter. For the life of me, the size escapes me.
My truck is AWAL not just rear wheel. It will all go.
First image is similar to what my truck has. Second is the set-up I pulled from the donor minus the RWAL required parts. My plan is an adjustable prop valve so I can dial in rear bias as needed (taller rear tires vs fronts).

So the daily driver went to the diesel hospital Monday morning. Today The mechanic Stan contacted me about the problems. Looks like it's the mid plate leaking so he's going to pull the trans and transfer case. Not going to be cheap but I do get an employee discount on the labor rate. $90 an hour instead of $125 + parts I'm going to call him in the morning and tell him to replace the front seal in the trans while it's out because it's got 250k on it. He wants to clear up the coolant leak before he moves on to the intake leak. Can't say I blame him. I may order a turbo elbow for it because I have a feeling it's one of the 2 aftermarket block off plates on the stock plastic one leaking. Oh well it's only money I can't take it with me when I'm gone so I'm going down the Duramax lml rabbit hole.
 
Put the GTO on the battery restore to see if I can get it back. For some reason the trickle charger shows its fully charged, but when I go to turn her over its a no go. I think it might be a bad cell but figured worth a shot to try before replacing it
