well we were making great progress tonight until i set the trashcan on fire and had to use the fire extinguisher to put it out. Wrapped up the motor all the way down to the oil filter cleaned the garage moved the car and motor into the right place and was in the process of completing the battery box when i lit the trashcan on fire.

got the kmember out last night. Have a few questions if anyone has answers. How high up should the springs be on the strange shocks? and how does everyone keep the car up high enough to put the motor under? just some blocks and jackstands?
