Default Project Began (pics)

So today we started the tear down. Its amazing how you can take something apart that took you so long to put together. We pulled the exhaust first, then pulled the 80e. Next came the magnacharger and then motor itself. Then the A/C and all its components. Then all the wiring and ECU. So now the truck is just sitting there lifeless. Tomorrow we are going to start putting all the stuff thats going from the old motor to the new motor and getting that ready to go in. But I just thought I would start a thread and let yall know that it has officially began, and I will update it as the project comes along. Mid 10s is the goal. We will see

Man, I know the feeling bro

I spent 2.5yrs working on putting parts on my T/A and making it fairly quick. Then when I had to tear it all down, no trans, no motor, no interior (ohh wait, I did that for racing LOL ) and sitting on jackstands... She looked like a poor lifeless corpse

I'm so happy she is back on the raod again, even if she is so slow she can't even spin the tires anymore. LOL
