I either deleted it or forgot what file I put it in cause I can't find it. I've been playing alot with photoshop here lately and I have to admit, I've made ugly **** lol, but I'm getting better. I touched up a whole lot of pics and made them look really good, but the other stuff like changing designs and adding stuff is what I'm trying to learn.
i have a buddy that put a 3500 stall in his and broke his 10 bolt! what brand did you go with?

I have a serious leak coming from the steering gear where one of the stainless lines goes into it. Anyone know if there is supposed to be an o-ring in there? I pulled the line and used a q-tip and a small mirror to look inside for any loose/old ring. I found nothing. I tried to tighten it up and that made it alot worse. Anyone worked on this stuff before? I havent. I guess i will go to the autopart store in the morning, or the dealership. There is a steady stream of fluid coming out!

Where is the leak coming from? Where the fluid goes in to the rack from the pump?

I wish I was working on my car, but I had to work. Gonna get started on it today though. Hopefully have the rear, rod bolts, oil pan gasket, plugs, and wires done before wednesday. It's gonna be tight though. Would like to get it together before friday in case the rain holds out so I can go and run it.
