If you love something let it go......

aha, that is the other LC on Eric's property lol, I should probably be there

I should probably finish up my 80 and get it off Eric's lift.

I hope you get some help. But a week before Relic run I’m sure most club members will be busy with their own projects.

I know a week out from the event is usually my busiest time for me in the garage.

But I might still swing by for a little bit.

I get that and completely understand it. The dates just seemed to line up for me with miles I could use to get back and Brian's schedule, no I should day Lily's softball schedule. Lol
With the engine still in it adds some more work but I'm hoping I can get all my work done and just find three solid days ti get it done.
Not trying to interfere with anyone else's projects I'd be happy if people just dropped by to day hi for a few and drink a beer. Haven't seen some of the ONSC crew in over 6 years.

What time were you thinking?

What time were you thinking?

Most likely around 10 start time for people to show up on the Saturday illost likely have started earlier. I'll update when it gets closer.

I might be able to swing that weekend. Are there enough tools lying around, or should I bring some, and what?

 

[fourtrax]

Should have enough tools

Can't believe I just typed that.

A bath was given, still needs a good hand wash but, took a few years of crud off. You can see before and after about 1/2 way thru the hood.

still on for tomorrow?

still on for tomorrow?

Yes sir heading over today shortly to start to pull the 3fe. Hoping to have it out before we have to do school runs later lol.

Got it up on the lift yesterday.

Looking at it I'm not entirely sure the 3f oil pan needs to be swapped with my lift.

 

[lt1fire]

This thing is being a pig lol.

Started a little later than I wanted. Brian got stuck at work so I'm solo.
The guy I sold this too and bought it back from said it overheated and he just let it sit. But someone has mos def been trying to do some work in it. Missing bolts, stripped bolts, already snapped bolts, crossthreaded bolts,issmatched bokts that should be the exact same. Only one bolt holding the radiator into.the side mounts though lol.

After talking to @fourtrax yesterday he has all but convinced me to do a LS swap in the future lol

Where I'm at currently can't get this damn lower valence off... all the tabs where broken. Managed to get two of the four out but the last two won't allow me to get a good grip on the broken tab to hold it.

Enablement enacted
Just think Al, you can switch to a split case with twin sticks and have 2WD Low available too!
Let us not forget that you can put a Tremec 4050 5 speed behind that motor too.
