I'm gonna need a replacement then along with all the fuel lines and such. Good news is NO Vacuum lines!

Sorry to hear that you won't make it, but I understand. Thanks for the cell #, if we get in a jam I'll call ya. See you in September (or sooner).


Anyone else available on the 26th? Crash seems to think we will have it running by the end of the day. One can only hope.

Hahaha, you havent seen my EW3... One word... CHROME!!! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Apparently I work the opposite way... Its taken me two weeks to pull the top end off my F-150 (and im still hung up on two exhaust manifold studs so I can get to the last three head bolts under the EM's). Hell, the first time I tore the EW1 head off the Dx, it took me two full days JUST to work on the IM (and 15 minutes to pull the head off including the EM!), and it only took 45 minutes to put everything back together.

As for dropping in an EW w/ tranny, the only snag I had was the damn shifter linkage pin mad.gif laugh.gif
