Sounds good!!! Lookin forward to meeting you guys!!!


Ill be heading to houston in the morning to pick up the motor since I'm off work until Sunday night I'm going to take tomorrow to go over every nut and bolt and make sure everything is there. I've gotten so much stuff shipped to me the past few weeks its been hard to keep track of all of it. Me and the UPS guy are on a first name basis these days hahaha....

With the exception of the lady on the phone being a rude C-bag, everything has gone wonderfully....

It SHOULD have been running and driving yesterday... But as always, we ran into issues... Found a broken flexplate that I didn't know about (#4 ) and spent 4hrs tracking one down, broke Vband clamps, missing nuts, searching for this and fixing that we were finally ready to go hot at about 11:30pm last night....

Cranked it over and got nothing.... Looked over every ground strap, all the plugs on the harness, and were getting no spark whatsoever. Pulled a plug and verified it, I'm at a loss at this point.

Looked it over today as well... Thinking we may have missed something in the dark and, nothing...

The worst part is, my time is up, and I've gotta go back to work tonight... In 2hrs to be exact
