    Moving on... Holy ge'ez it's hot in St. Louis today! Got my work bench done. I don't know if I want to get it dirty.

    Botched 5.3(?) install - what to do next

    Ok, so it seems that most have success with factory Corvette manifolds. I'm more about dependability than generating a few extra ponies - oh and I'm all for the cost benefit of going oem. I appreciate everyone who has provided input so far. This is going to take a while, so don't hold your...

    Botched 5.3(?) install - what to do next

    I'm expecting to need new manifolds. I have a set, but I have no idea their source. Most people seem to find used Corvette manifolds, but is there a reason most don't run something aftermarket? Is it the cost or something I'm missing? Actually, I'm spending most of my time trolling other...

    I know I overspent by a $1500 or so. You'll spend less money in the long run if you can afford to spend more for a cleaner rig up front.

    I'm actually in StL - St. Louis. I do live in county which requires emission testing, but nothing before '96, so I should be good. We do safety inspections here, but they don't care much about what's under the hood so long as it's older than '96 - or so I was told when I got my car...

    Botched 5.3(?) install - what to do next

    Well I know the transmission is from an '03 standard duty, 5.7, Dodge 4x4, thank you AA for a wonderful website, so I've got that going for me. I did give me an invoice, a very generic invoice, a very waste-of-my-time-this-is-b/s invoice, right after he shipped the truck and before he stopped...

    I've never thought about going to the clubhouse, Elbert. Great idea. There's not a whole lot of LC activity here in Missouri, my service writer buddy just now stopped calling it a Land Rover..., but at the very least I could open potential dialog.

    So, I'm showing my ignorance here, but why would you need to change out the shift tower?

    Thanks for the words ander42b. It's tough not to get down on the lost $$, but it is what it is now. Re: 1. - Good eye. I'd been searching those transmission numbers on Chevy sites, even though he initially told me we got a Dodge unit. He went back and forth, but I just assumed (that rarely...

    Botched 5.3(?) install - what to do next

    Thanks for the tips everyone and for the ever so rosy picture from dbleon. The motor mounts are in, but no transfer case cross member - nothing. I'm not sure if I'll have to have something fab'd up or if the stock unit will work, but i'd have to get one. Thanks so much. The wife and I had a...

    Hey Everyone - Long time no see. Take a look at the thread I started last week for a refresher/background. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/just-another-fj60-owner-paying-for-work-that-didnt-happen.810480/ i've decided I'm going to do as much as I am capable, but here's the deal. I don't know...

    Reputable Auto Shipping Company?

    I just used National Transport LLC to get my truck from Denver to StL. I called on Wednesday and had it by Sunday. I would've had to borrow my father-in-law's truck, lose 24hrs for the 1,800 miles, pay for gas, food, and sleeping for anything cheaper than the $940 they charged me for a truck...
