Great progress Brett, moving along nicely. Just wondering on the wiring, is that for the LS motor also or just the basics headlights and such.

Lenie 08-27-2012 06:14 AM

Ron, looks great. Get your garage ready, won't be long.:thumbsup:

Rick I'm using the modified LS harness from PSI + the AAW car harness kit. I'm pretty sure Painless makes an LS harness to go with their kits, maybe AAW does too?

Dang it!! I'm at my part time job and can't see the pics due to the filter on the computer. I"m sure the pics are on point. Can't wait until I get home at 8:30 pm to see them. Long time from now though. LOL!! All I see know is the box with the little red "x" in it.:mad: :mad:

This is Ron we are talking about. I bet the engine will get some kind of upgrade work after seeing no more than 2000 miles.

Yeah it's been since high school metal shop for me, and no Migs! Plus the kid doing the welding is better looking than anyone else who's touched the car! :lol:

Ah, Matt knows me too well. The heads come off in 2k miles. There's at least a bronze valve guide upgrade that shoulda been done. :lateral:

Sorry Ron, I didn't look at anything last night. LOL!! After I got home and played with my 7 month old son, well chased him around because he's crawling now, I was dog tired. LOL!! Pics are sweet. Motor looks at home sitting in there. Won't be long now, huh?:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

chr2002ca 08-29-2012 11:46 AM

Lookin' good Ron. Brett's doing a great job. Sorted out beautifully. :thumbsup:

Ron in SoCal 09-15-2012 09:49 AM

So with all the action goin on around here, Brett threw me a bone last night:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

So that's about 99% true. Unfortunately the Fab53 non-destructive testing was destructive so we need to replace the breakable parts; big PITA but better now than later! :cheers:
