Yay!

Nice.    The 30/20 should be fine just remember not to hammer down always (drive sedately like me).
If you need help I'm sure someone will help out so let us know.

Nice work Bob!  How does she sound? Any mufflers, or just the open headers?

[Blacky]

It sounds so awesome, it just has the manifolds on it right now so it's loud but who doesn't love the sound of a v8? Haha

Fair point, it's not going to be wheeled without mufflers though that's for sure

[SPYDER]

the sound isn't the problem...its the smell...but then again most of us smell like raw fuel since most of us don't run evap systems anymore.

You sound like Obama!

I've been slowly gathering parts for this thing, and have been chipping away getting stuff done. I did end up getting the diff cover off of the 20; brought home a welder from work and some spare 3/32" 6013 rod and welded nuts to the bolts, worked like a charm. The goo inside was/is just plain disgusting, I've been having a hell of a time cleaning it out. Brake cleaner tastes disgusting by the way!

Once I get it back to moving and stopping under its own power, I'm going to have to bring it to work and weld up the bell crank as it is really work out, there might be 1/8" left before the linkage to the clutch pedal blows through the side of the tab its on!

I have to get calipers and rear brake parts still, and a fan for the motor too. Seriously considering just ordering a flex fan and calling it good enough.

I also noticed when I was putting the front axle shafts back in that the steering box is just pouring fluid out of the input shaft seals so that will need addressing before fall crawl also

[SPYDER]

Sounds like a long to-do list.   Get on it

please get 1 piece shafts for the rear before you take it on a trail

[Blacky]

I meant to put that in my last post, I have one piece shafts to put in once I button up the front axle. I also forgot that I still have to put the fuel tank in and all the necessary accoutrements

[Bluerocket]

dont get a flex fan, i hate mine.

Is it not cooling yours enough or is it just loud?
