today I am going to replace the lower intake gasket, install the tremec and hopefully install the wideband if I can find someone to weld in this town.

I have done ABSOLUTELY nothing with my car in the last 5 months except order parts because I am stuck in the sand box! lol But I think about the next thing I want to do to my car every minute of the day and plan out the plans when I go on leave over and over lol. ooo and the other day I photocropped one of the pics of my 93 and put the hatch and tail lights from my 83 on it to make it look more complete

Made an exhaust video while pretending that a substantial oil leak wasnt there. But i dropped the new engine in last week and got it running, and this weekend i have to drop the K member or something of equal pain in the assery to fix the damn leak.

I will put one up one of these days. . . It is defiantly going to need to be washed before I do. . . Not that it will help, it needs paint and a top.

motor is coming out tomorrow.....doesn't look good for me and CAD this year..........anyway, due to the excessive pressure it takes to push the clutch in all the pressure gets transfered up against the flywheel which is bolted to crankshaft and the thrust bearing has takin' a lickin' from it, everytime I push the clutch in it stalls the car unless I keep the revs up in nuetral it'll idle and run fine and not stall, crankshaft moves in and out more than it should, past the spec
