Yes i am picking up the Short block tonight. Much work to do before it goes back in. The rear end and Fuel tank need to come out and the front suspenion is off. Then I need to find time to do some clean up and painting while it is apart.

My 56,000 mile old trans could use some love from the way it smells


Lots of work to do.

Doug call me I might be able to knock it out this week so you can have it for the weekend
