Tedious work. Keep at it. It starts to get real fun just around the corner.

Hope it doesn't work how my XRi did. I yanked it and no more bizarre electrical issues. I have heard from others the built in rev limiter is off by 500rpm

I hope so too.

Dan Jensen did the ignition top to bottom and recommended the crane unit. Can't wait to be finding out what makes the most horsepower vs what grinds the best:-)

PS: Update: I have a welder (machine/gas/Helmut/etc) ready to pick up so I can start small repairs:-) Not sure of the Easter bunny will keep us busy every second of the weekend....

No progress today, yard work, and Good Friday events.

I did snap a few pictures of my Valve cover sticker:-) Can you feel the tension in the air? :-)

Easter family dinner at our place, we lit a candle for my Dad.

Today was a hard day for my Mom, my wife, my kids, my Grandma (Dad's Mom) and a hard day for me:-(

We will keep lighting a candle and keep the memories close to our hearts.

Captured a few parts today:-)

I bought the Moog springs from Danny T's new SS3396:-)

Also bought a console cover (the guy I bought it from has a few very cool Oldsmobiles) the plate is for a 3 speed, who would get the manual trans, pay for a console and not upgrade to 4 speed?
