Nice going, hopefully I get my going within a month or two of getting home in August. Then we may have to run 'em sometime

You would have had to have been following the whole story. Guy was supposed to be watching my car, got all shady as soon as I deployed to Iraq, and now I'm saying he just sold it. SInce he works for the prison, the cops pretty much gave me the finger.

started out as just a bare long block, with no front accessories on it and then quickly we did this


we put most of my old stuff off my engine since it was running good back onto this one
and after a quick run to the dealership to get some extra headers bolts and order a new brake line, this is what we finished with today


the things i need to run start the car is a new water pump, a torque converter, the brake line and exhaust. tomorrow is puttin the wiring back in place

well the engine is in and the bolts are up, i'm just waiting on the brake line before i snug the body bolts up. i'm having some difficulty remembering where wires go, mainly for the starter anyone have write ups or pics of starters they pulled off and put on? i'd like to see where the negative and positive wires from the battery go and where the ground wire goes thats on the same line as the sensor that plugs into the oil pan
