84 K20 "Ethel" Not an Sbc/NV4500/241C

Semi restoration of a 1984 K20 pickup. 5.3 LS, nv4500, np241c.
Alright, I got the injector lines replaced so no more leaks there.. What a pain in the but.. I dunno who thought those stupid clips were a good idea but they should be shot. I had 4 inches of line left.. So much for bulk, the price was cheap so that's ok. They also include the plugs for the end injectors.

The line is very nice quality compared to whatever was on there.
Now I need to delete this water sensor..

The idle is much more stable now.
 
Argh... Have I mentioned that I hate CADMV?? I noticed the declared unladen weight on the title says 6800!! which we all know is crazy.. So I have two options.. Get a moving permit and have the damn thing weighed then go back again and pay the 180somthing for my registration. Or... do my backup plan.. If you wanna know pm me but I aint posting it on here.
The backup basically is cheap and I mean less than 100$ cheap.. I dunno.. Just wanna drive the damn thing but Ca sure makes it a hard pill to swallow.
 
Step one done now to weigh station.. I gotta say I'm a little nervous about tires from 2003 and belts.. God love AAA..

I made it to AAA!! Man this is a ton of work to drive in town! Seems pretty good, got her up to 70!! Woah speed demon!

Also got the proper weight.. If anyone was wondering, image.jpeg
This is what a k20 diesel with one full take completely empty weighs..
A m1009 data plate states those are 5100..

Oh and it's 100 degrees today with no ac and the temp has not gone over 200.. Id say that's good..
