finished pulling the bottom end as far as i plan to, the rest is for the machine shop to do. Now i got to figure out how to get the block and head in the trunk of the car to take it to the shop thursday. im tired of working on greasy mechanical work already, im ready for warm weather so i can finish my interior and some of the stuff i want to get done to the outside.

For the last day in January it sure was like a spring day here in New Jersey. Sunny and 53 degrees. So Since I didn't have any work lined up I decided to play with my van. I did a complete wash and wax on the van, and then went out for a long ride through the reservation. I'll tell ya, what a great way to cure a case of cabin fever. The van was running perfect and sounded great growling over the twisting mountain roads. The day culminated with a safety meeting at a club members house.  One final wipe down and on the road just in time for a sunset van ride home...... Nice  Eat my Dust...I'm gone! (no way that ford is catching me)

Monday I replaced a 2.5 year old muffler that fell off last Saturday, and the day before I replaced a 3 mo old battery. Today, I hope to finish wiring in my solenoid so I can give myself a jump from the second battery if I ever have a problem again. Maybe figure out why my stereo sound so much quieter than it did before the battery replacement.

Mufflers are overrated. Mine doesn't have a bottom half on it.... sounds just like a cherry bomb.
