RE: Whooooohoooooooo New 347 isnt she beautiful
yeah the car isnt much to look at right now oxidized paint but hell after 17 yrs old looks pretty good, took a buffer to it a few mths ago and shined up nicely, it will be repainted probably feb sometime just depends when i want to let it go for a week, prolly have too much fun with it and not want to let it leave my sight, all the parts are good lookin and NEW is the best part about them, going to go home and put motor in in about 1 hr then DS, DS loop, and all new 3" exhaust, tomorrow work on the top and front of motor, then wednesday ignition and anything left to do, hopefully if my MAF that got screwed up 30lbs instead of 42s gets here thurs or frid will start for first time,,, ohyeah and yeah my dog is a badass

thanks man, will need the extra luck with the problems i had last night,, went to drop the motor in last night, got everything to bolt up right except when putting the clutch on didnt even think about little problems i might have,, well bolting on the pressure plates and the damned flywheel is the wrong one,, it is a ford works fine, just tapped holes are not in correct place and the diameter across bolt holes across flywheel is about 3/4" off, called my mech asked WTF did he order, so had to pull everything back out and take another look, got a new one on order today should be here tomorrow but what sucks is have to pull engine completely apart to balance correctly,,,, also have a new 7qt moroso oil pan and when i put my bellhousing up to it to align holes, the bottom cover hits my drain plug on the back of the pan,, so pulled out the trusty angle grinder and went to town on my new BH,, well got that taken care of just got to get the motor back into shape,, sucks b/c MAF will be here this week but the motor probably wont be back together, thinkin i might try and scrape together the extra $2000 for the dart block,,,,, hmmmmmm too hard of a decision to make, be poor now or be poor later,
