the best part of that especially after you have been to the doc for it and you find your self in the same situation 3 days later and you tell your self this isnt going to be a problem just one more weld and I am done then you end up back in the docs office

Finally got my luv machine up and running once again. I got all the conductors landed and tested and its alive. Now all I have to do is clean it up and put it in some split loom. While I was at it I removed quite a bit of the old wire that I dont plan on using like their were some old plugs hanging off the fire wall I think they were used with the stock motor so I peeled it all out for a cleaner look. Hopefully after work today I will be able to have it all cleaned up and in good shape.

Yeah hopefully by april I will have my 327 in it and my new rear end I have had for a couple of months now. I got rained out today for the first time this year and hopefully if my schedule stays the way its supposed to be I wont be going out of town for a while so I can get some stuff done. I have been working in sacramento for the last 2 months that makes it hard to get things done. Who's all coming to redding for April nights? It would be cool if we could get at least a few people together.

cool more people the better. LOL I got pulled over while I was out on a test drive last night. I was just around the corner from my house going up a little hill and it was wet and cold, droped it down to 2nd gear and the rear tires broke loose. just at the top of the hill there were 2 sheriffs sitting there and one had his lights on. I think they were amazed to see what it was they heard because by the time it was all said and done and they looked at my truck, I think they forgot why they pulled me over. I got compliments on my truck and then I was back on my way home.

Got all my wiring pretty much done now. Besides the gas gauge acting like there isnt any gas in the tank which it could be right cant remember the last time I put gas in it. im going to try to pull the 283 before this weekend if I can manage to weasle in a little time between family disfunctions and christmas crap. I put the finishing touches on my 327 tonight so now its just a matter of time and getting it done.

LOL now now dont fight over me. Lets get that cage built as soon as possible Im excited to help. Maybe when you get the cage done we can tear into my 8.8 and stick some stump pulling gears in it. Yay, im off to the blue hairs for Xmas. I can hardly wait to see what the big fat man in the red suit brought me.
